“My boy rooting for France,” Pogba said in the post, and they both laughed at the comments about McKennie’s hairstyle.
She debuted her new cut at the World Cup with the red, white and blue of the American flag colored in her hair.
Even with the joke, McKennie raised a fist in support before saying “Ici c’est Paris,” translated as “This is Paris,” a Paris Saint-Germain club slogan.
McKennie is back in training, and still sports red, white and blue hair, after her trip to Qatar.
Pogba also appears to be back in training after a thigh injury forced him to miss the World Cup.
McKennie had an excellent performance in Qatar with the US men’s team, coming out of the group before losing to the Netherlands in the round of 16.
He was part of a critical midfield trio of himself, Tyler Adams and Yunus Musah who were the core of the USMNT system.
As for Pogba, he appeared to be on his way to making the France squad but suffered a thigh injury in October that forced him to sit out the World Cup.
The final between Argentina and France is set for this Sunday.
