Paul Pogba says ‘Turin is good for me’ amidst rumours of a move away from Juventus in the summer.
The French midfielder has been linked with the likes of Chelsea, Manchester City and Real Madrid, with his agent admitting he won’t stay with the Bianconeri forever.
In an interview with Juventus’ in-house television channel the 21-year-old revealed he’s been learning Spanish – but only because he’s good friends with Fernando Llorente.
“Turin is very calm, and it’s good for me to relax and to focus,” Pogba explained.
“I like to sit and watch TV series like The Walking Dead with [Patrice] Evra, who is my Uncle Pat. Just like in Manchester [United] there’s the French group.
“Then there’s Fernando Llorente, I see him a lot. He’s my Spanish teacher.
“Sometimes we go to eat with the team, and I love spending time with them. I think it’s a good thing which helps the squad stay united and that’s very important.
“I’m find in Turin, I think it’s a city which keeps you focus on the job of playing football.
“In Milan there are too many things to do. There are many restaurants, there’s fashion week… many things to do.”
Despite being a relative youngster, Pogba has established himself as one of Juve’s key players, and the former Manchester United man puts that down to always focusing on the next target.
“In my mind there are always so many targets.
“For example, if we win the League again there are other goals I want to achieve. We’ve never ‘arrived’, that’s the way I am.
“It’s true that the Juve players have helped me too. The environment at Juventus is always helpful for me.”
