Pogba can become the world’s best player at United – Mourinho


Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, has said that Paul Pogba can develop into the best player in the world if he joins the club.

Pogba is set to return to Old Trafford, after a fee of around £90m was agreed with Juventus and the Italian club has given him permission to undergo a medical.

Mourinho believes the medical is a mere formality and is already looking forward to working with the France midfielder.

“United is the perfect club to bring him to the level he wants to be,” Mourinho said after the Community Shield match on Sunday.

“The Premier League is the perfect habitat if you want to be the best player in the world. If you go to Barca or Madrid you are in trouble, because I don’t think the other two big guys will let you develop to that level.

“Here he has the conditions to develop in the biggest worldwide championship, with a team that wants to bring Manchester United to the top again. We have everything to give him. Money he will get in any big club. He comes because he knows the club, the city, many of the players and to be part of the Man United project.

“If it goes well in the medical, which I think he will – I see on Instagram he does kung-fu, karate, running, basketball, football – everything, so he must be fit – on Tuesday I will be there waiting for him, if that is the situation for us.

“This has been a good window for us; [Eric] Bailly, Pogba, [Zlatan] Ibrahimobvic, [Henrikh] Mkhitaryan. One defender, one midfielder, one striker, one creative. The squad is good.

“But we need to work a lot. We need more weeks of work. I am happy that for three weeks we have just a match for the weekend.”
