When asked how he wanted to me remembered in 30 years,Pogba replied: “By watching YouTube, like they do with Maradona and Pele. When I say I want to become a legend, some people say it’s pretentious. For me, it’s a challenge. My desire, a dream. I’m not saying I’ll get there, but it’s what I want.”
Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has confirmed Pogba interest saying that the player would be a suitable player for the club.
Previously Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has disclosed that his side would be interested in signing Paul Pogba if the Juventus midfielder became available.

In his turn Real Madrid manager Zidane said:
“He is a great player, every team would want to have him. But he is a Juventus player and we have to respect that.”
The legendary player of Juventus, Alessandro Del Piero, has described the young talent Paul Pogba as “not yet a complete player”.
Del Piero said: “When we think of the Juventus number 10, we imagine a complete player. But today, Pogba isn’t yet – he’s an atypical number 10. You have to give him a bit of time to grow even more.”
Andrea Pirlo who played with Pogba at Juventus added: “I have played with some great young players, but Pogba was the best young player I have ever seen. We saw from his first training session with Juventus that he was special. There was a disbelief among the senior players that Manchester United had allowed him to leave. Since then he has grown physically and as a player. For me he is now the most complete central midfield player in the world.”
Paul Pogba was signed by Juventus from Manchester United in 2012.
