Jose Mourinho unsure of Manchester United's Paul Pogba's illness

Paul Pogba

Jose Mourinho faces an anxious wait to discover whether Paul Pogba can take part in Manchester United's midweek Champions League last-16 trip to Sevilla after he missed their 2-0 FA Cup win over Huddersfield Town due to illness.

Manchester United manager Mourinho, whose relationship with club-record signing Pogba has been under close scrutiny in recent weeks, insisted he did not even know what the illness was or how long the France midfielder may be unable to play.

"I don't know," said Mourinho when asked about the nature of Pogba's illness after today's match. "When I was told by the doctor this morning that he was not coming, I don't want to know anything else about it - I have to think who will replace him, what I am going to do because we worked hard during the week."
