According to reports from the Middle East, Paul Pogba, the star of Manchester United and the French national team, decided to retire from the national uniform not for professional reasons but following the remarks of President Emanuel Macron.
Pogba reportedly decided on the drastic step after the French president declared "Islam is the source of terrorism in the world."
And if that's not enough, it turns out that Pogba also really disliked the government's decision to honor the memory of the teacher whose head was beheaded after publishing offensive cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.
It should be noted that the 27-year-old Pogba, who made his debut in the French national team uniform as early as 2013, has not yet responded to publications such as the French national team spokeswoman, but the media reveals that the French player, known as a close Muslim, was greatly hurt by publications.
Pogba, who has made 72 appearances for the team and scored ten goals in the tricolor uniform, was reportedly seeing President Macron's remarks as a "personal insult" and made the decision last Friday after Macron made it clear that "determination and assertiveness will be the only answers against monstrous Islamic terrorism".
