Pogba impressed by Juve teammates

Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has said that it is an honour to be playing alongside the players in his team.

Pogba, who joined Juve last summer from Manchester United, also said that he is learning every day from the club's coach Antonio Conte.

"I look at Andrea Pirlo and Gianluigi Buffon and I realise what it is to be a true champion," he told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "Those two have won everything - they're unbelievable players - and they never give up, not even in training.

"I'd like Claudio Marchisio's technical perfection, Arturo Vidal's grit and determination and the precision of Pirlo's passing.

"I get better every day thanks to [Conte]. He works hard, he hammers his point home, he's always hungry for success and he wants to win. I couldn't have asked for more expert guidance at this stage of my career."

Pogba has scored one goal in three appearances for France.
