Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba shared the football pitch 45 times at Manchester United and combined for five goals. While the former has hung up his boots, the latter has recently penned a two-year contract with Ligue 1 team Monaco following the conclusion of his ban. With his practice to get his game in form, Pogba seems to be also enjoying his time in Monaco City. He was seen relaxing on a yacht with online streamer IShowSpeed as the duo caught up.
In a light-hearted moment during Paul Pogba’s stream with IShowSpeed, Pogba videocalled his former Manchester United teammate Zlatan Ibrahimovic and handed over the phone to Speed. Ibrahimovic playfully tore into the call which ended up with Pogba in hysterics. Ibrahimovic confronted Speed for not responding to his direct messages (DMs) on social media platform Instagram. “I did not see. I did not know you texted me,” said Speed. He kept saying to Zlatan that he will answer him back, while Pogba fueled the friendly banter and continuously laughed when the situation occurred.
