Paul Pogba admits he 'loves' former club Manchester United

Paul Pogba has admitted that he still 'loves' his former club Manchester United, despite being offloaded by Sir Alex Ferguson back in 2012.

The 21-year-old, who was was described as 'disrespectful' by Ferguson, joined Juventus on a free transfer three years ago and has gone on to become a top talent in Serie A.

However, questions have been raised over the midfielder's long-term future after his agent Mino Raiola claimed that Pogba could leave the Turin-based club.

While reflecting on his time at United in an interview with FourFourTwo magazine, Pogba said: "The coach (Ferguson) had faith in me but didn't put me on. He said that I was too young.

"He said 'your time will come' but it never did. It didn't come, but it does not mean I will speak ill of Manchester United. I love the club."

Real Madrid are rumoured to be interested in the midfielder.
