Paul Pogba: Juve is my family, but I don't know where I'm headed

Speaking to ESPN at an award ceremony in Los Angeles, he was asked to give his views on Juventus, Real Madrid and Manchester United – the latter two of which the 23-year-old has been linked to.

Pogba said of the Serie A champions: “This is my team, my family, where I am playing. I am happy there, I play football, and do things I wanted to do when I was small."

On Real Madrid, who narrowly missed out on the Liga title last season, he remarked: "The white house - which won the Champions League this year - is a great club."

Finally on his former club United, he said: "my first club, my first family."

When asked how he would react to a widely-anticipated offer from United manager Jose Mourinho, he said: "My response would be 'I don't know.' I don't know when. We will see. For the moment, I am here [Juventus] and I am happy here. I don't know where I want to go."

Speculation around Pogba’s future has been rife throughout his Euro 2016 campaign with host-nation France, with a move to United or Real hotly tipped.

The rumour mill went into overdrive on Thursday, however, as a fan posted separate pictures of himself with both Pogba and new United recruit Zlatan Ibrahimovic – who share an agent - apparently at the same restaurant in Los Angeles.
