Juventus are still laughing at United over Pogba deal – Pirlo
On the first training session Pogba had with Juventus the players were laughing.
With Fellaini I always have the feeling that he was not loved by the general Red people. He was young, but we could see he was special.
Jose Mourinho’s side smashed the transfer record to bring the France worldwide back to Old Trafford on a five-year deal for a fee worth an initial £89.5m.
“Manchester United have done this because they understood that Pogba will bring so much to the team”.
Manchester United attacker Anthony Martial is grateful to Louis van Gaal for his role in the forward’s performances last term.
“They signed a player of his quality for no money, he was a big part of them winning trophies in four seasons, and they then sell him for £90m”. The former Juventus man is set to make his second debut for the Red Devils on Friday, when they face Southampton at Old Trafford.
“Manchester United have always broken transfer records for players who are of a certain age, just below their peak”, he added.
Pirlo, who now plays for New York FC in the Major League Soccer, however believes Pogba will be a success in England. You give any team Pogba and Zlatan [Ibrahimovic] in one window and they are going to capable of special things.
Marchisio is the only member of that illustrious quartet still at the football club following Pogba’s sale, although Juventus will be delighted to have made such a significant profit on a player they picked up for a meagre fee.
United manager Jose Mourinho left the £89million France midfielder behind in Manchester on Sunday as his side opened their campaign with a comfortable 3-1 win at Bournemouth.
Do you think re-signing the French star was good business by the Old Trafford club?
