The World winner said he learnt a lot at Juventus by playing alongside Pirlo, Gigi Buffon and Giorgio Chiellini because of their wealth of experience in the game.

Meanwhile, Pogba is a target for Juventus as they wish to have him back but it is unclear if United will be willing to release him because of their huge investments in him. He is believed to be part of the future of the club.

United suffered a slow start of the season which unsettled Pogba but the situation seems to have changed as they following their last 2-1 win against Everton.
