After four months out with a calf problem, Paul Pogba could return to the squad to face OM on Sunday.

Coach Sébastien Pocognoli said on Friday that the midfielder is available, while stressing that inclusion remains only a possibility at this stage.

The recent international break was intended as a marker for whether he might play again before the season ends, and it has gone well enough to keep the door open.

Pogba has trained consistently with the group since the start of the break, with three sessions still to come before the game.

If he is omitted, it would be a joint call that the conditions are not yet in place for a league match.

For now there are no medical red flags and progress is positive, but the final decision will follow those remaining sessions, with kick-off at 20:45.
