Paul Pogba is back in Manchester United colours, it’s official.
The French midfielder signed for the Red Devils this week but won’t be available to play in their Premier League opener because of a bizarre suspension rule that carried over from his time with Juventus last season.
Therefore, fans will have to wait to see the midfielder make his second debut for club but meanwhile he has become a bit of a social media sensation with his pal Stormzy.

To celebrate/mock the time he has been parading around on social media – think his fairly cringe worthy transfer announcement that he had moved to Man United – he has finally been properly roasted though.
He was rick rolled, in a way!

We just hope Paul sees the funny side.
