'Don't believe everything you read in the papers', a hooded Pogba was seen saying.
Understandably, many United fans thought that was the end of matters. But a day later, there's an extended version of the video...

After a brief cameo from United fan Stormzy, the video goes back to Pogba who utters adidas' 'First never follows' motto into the camera.
Have adidas just let the cat out of the bag? If they haven't, all this is one hell of a coincidence.
