The youngster also stated that he would do his best to ensure that 2014 be the same or even better than 2013 -
“I just hope that 2014 is the same! One day I would like to win everything there is to win. Dreaming is not illegal. However, I’m a down-to-earth guy, and right now I want to win a third title in a row for Juventus.”
In a hotly contested race to glory, Pogba warded off stiff competition from Real Madrid’s Raphael Varane, Schalke’s Julian Draxler and PSG’s Marquinhos and in doing so, joined an elite list of players to have won this award previously including the likes of Wayne Rooney and Rafael Van Der Vaart.
