Pogba decision a 'non event'
Paul Pogba's former club Le Havre claim FIFA has not validated the player's move to Manchester United.
A statement on United's official website said the 16-year-old midfielder had been authorised by FIFA to register as a player at Old Trafford, but the French club have refuted the decision as a non-event.
Le Havre accused United of unlawfully approaching the teenager in the aftermath of the Gael Kakuta affair which saw Chelsea banned from signing players in the next two transfer windows.
Despite United saying that the player has been cleared to move by FIFA, the French outfit say the matter is still to be resolved.
A Le Havre statement read: "As opposed to what Manchester United specifies on its official site, FIFA did not validate the transfer of Paul Pogba but has, like it systematically does in this type of case, issued a provisional international certificate.
"The decision of the international authority is a non event and normal procedure. This procedure has been the same for the previous cases of Charles N'Zogbia, Laure Lepilleur and Gael Kakuta and we know today the result of each one of these cases.
"Like FIFA specifies in its decision, the delivery of the provisional international certificate does not prejudge anything resulting from the case file."
However, the provision of the certificate means Pogba is able to join the United Under 18 side for the time being.
