Manchester United star Paul Pogba to come up against brother Florentin in the Europa League

Paul Pogba could find himself being marked by older brother Florentin when Manchester United welcome St Etienne in the Europa League on Thursday.

The Pogbas will be the first siblings to face each other at Old Trafford since Rio and Anton Ferdinand met in 2012 and Florentin, 26, has quipped he'll happy try to stop his more famous brother at set pieces.

'I will take care of the little one. As a big brother, I know if I put on the pressure, it is no longer the same,' he said.

Florentin has spent most of his career as a centre-back but has recently returned to left-back where he started his career in Spain with Celta Vigo.
