Could Pogba retire?

He has recently hinted at retirement in an interview with Al Jazeera’s Generation Sport: “Money changes people. ... It can break up a family. It can create a war. Sometimes I was just by myself thinking: ‘I don’t want to have money anymore. I just don’t want to play anymore. I just want to be with normal people, so they will love me for me -- not for the fame, not for the money.’ Sometimes it’s tough.”
