‘Pogba won’t go back to Man United’

Andrea Pirlo doesn’t believe his Juventus teammate Paul Pogba will end up back at Manchester United.

The French international has been linked with a move away from the Bianconeri, with former club Manchester United among the names mentioned, but Pirlo believes that won’t happen after the Red Devils let his teammate go.

“For whatever reason they chose not to give him a chance and that is a mistake they will have to live with now," Pirlo told Telefoot.

“For whatever reason they chose not to give him a chance and that is a mistake they will have to live with now," Pirlo told Telefoot.

"I can't see that he will ever return to Manchester United.

“When he first joined us in training at Juventus we knew there was something about him, and in just two years he has become one of the best players in the world.

“Of course he is going to have options, he knows that. You can't play at the level he is and not attract attention.

“But he also knows that at Juventus he is already at one of the biggest clubs in Europe.

“I have spoken with him, and told him if he carries on working hard and makes the right decisions there is no limit to what he can achieve."
