During the FA Youth Cup, he scored a long-range goal, described as a “piledriver,” on 10th January 2011. A month later, he netted another similar goal in the Academy League against West Bromwich Albion.

His then manager, Alex Ferguson, promoted Pogba amongst three other players to the first-team squad ahead of Manchester United’s FA Cup fifth-round match against Crawley Town. He was assigned a number 42 shirt. For the rest of the season, Pogba continued in the under-18s.

At the start of the 2011/2012 season, Ferguson confirmed that Pogba would feature with the senior team. He was promoted to the club’s reserve team permanently for the 2011–12 season and made his first appearance of the season on 15 August 2011 in the team’s opening Premier Reserve League match against Arsenal. He earned himself a spot to the first team to participate in their Football League Cup tie on 19 September. He appeared as a half-time substitute to make his professional debut.
