Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has been accused of keeping guests at the luxury Lowry Hotel awake after apparent late-night romps with west African singer Dencia, which sounded like scenes from a 'porn movie', while fans may worry that such antics in the lead up to games have been affecting his on-field performances.
Pogba moved into the Salford hotel, regularly used by the club to house new signings, after completing his world record move from Juventus and the nights with Dencia are believed to have taken place in the last week of September.
A source told the Sun newspaper, "We stayed at the Lowry and saw Pogba and Dencia together. You can't miss Dencia - she is loud and flash.
"We were staying near them on the third floor of the hotel, so saw them coming and going from his room at the end of the hall-way.
"I settled down to sleep at 2am after getting in late. There was loud hip-hop music blaring from his room and lots of giggling. It eventually quietened down but between 3am and 4am there was unmistakable moaning and groaning to be heard.
"They didn't seem to care who heard them. It went on forever. It sounded like a porn movie. A few times we heard moans of 'Paul, babe' it was very uncomfortable. It was impossible not to hear because she was very loud."
Despite Dencia's management denying a sexual relationship with Pogba, the source claims to have heard the couple on the nights of the 24th, 27th, 28th and 30th September.
The first time came between 1am and 2am after United's 4-1 home win over Leicester, a game in which Pogba scored his first goal for the club. The next two nights were directly before the Frenchman played 90 minutes in the Europa League against Zorya Luhansk.
On the night of the 30th, the pair were allegedly going until 4am, two days before Pogba played another 90 minutes as United were held to a 1-1 draw by Stoke.
"If it wasn't loud music from his room it was loud moaning. The music was as annoying as the sex because it was vulgar hip hop," the source added.
