Asked why it could be his last tournament, considering his age, Pogba said: "I'm realistic about the fact that it may be my last World Cup.

"We do not know what's going to happen tomorrow, maybe I'll be injured or there will be players who will outperform me.

"But I hope to do more than one. Some players do not even play one World Cup in their careers."
