Manchester United concentrates in Dubai

The Manchester United is concentrated in Dubai preparing the second part of the Premier League at the high-performance sports center of Nad Al Sheba. In addition to dedicating their time to intense training, the team enjoys some leisure time, like the one Paul Pogba and part of the team experienced at a zoo in the city.

The French midfielder and other footballers like Jesse Lingard or Romelu Lukaku went to the zoo. They dared to feed a small tiger cub. As Lingard showed on his Instagram, Pogba felt comfortable feeding the dangerous feline. Pogba seemed unaware of the criticism that his compatriot Karim Benzema received for a very similar situation.

In the small video clips uploaded to the social network, Pogba could be seen sitting on the ground comfortably holding a bottle with which the young Bengal tiger was fed. Lingard seemed to have more difficulties in feeding the animal and had to be helped.

Lukaku's fear

Even though Lingard and Pogba seemed comfortable with the animals, it was not the case with Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian forward went with his teammates to the Dubai zoo where they saw chimpanzees and even a liger, a mix between a lion and a tiger. In another video uploaded by Lingard, Lukaku can be seen walking backwards, uncomfortable with the situation. One of his teammates touches his leg and the Belgian appears scared, something that seems to have been the object of mockery from his companions.
