Manchester United have settled their dispute with French club Le Harve over Paul Pogba's controversial move to Old Trafford in October 2009.
The disputed ownership of Paul Pogba became a major concern when Le Havre accused Manchester United of illegally poaching the 17-year-old Frenchman from their academy. However, the Red Devils had done the deal in a professional manner and had not broken any rules.
The case was then taken to FIFA when Le Harve requested them to intervene in this matter. FIFA too, declared their verdict in United’s favour and allowed Pogba to play for the Red Devils.
The two clubs have finally reached an agreement, but no details of it have been released by either club. The Ligue two side did say that - "Le Havre and Manchester United are satisfied to have reached an agreement regarding Paul Pogba's integration to the Manchester United squad."
Paul Pogba made his debut for United's Under-18 side against Crewe Alexandr. Hopefully, he should rise through the ranks at Manchester United and not face a similar situation as faced by Zoran Tosic who was signed as a promising youngster but ended up leaving the club and signing for CSKA Moscow this week.
