The 23-year-old won 4 Serie-A titles, 2 Coppa Italias and 2 Supercups in Italy and was one of 23 players named on the shortlist for the 2014 Ballon d’Or. Pogba is yet to find his feet at Manchester United although he has shown glimpses of his brilliance.
Ultimately, Juventus gained £89m through the sale of Pogba which makes it easily one of the smartest deals in the history of football.

About the author
Arvind Sriram
After a brief and undistinguished stint as an electrical engineer, Arvind discovered his true calling was churning out hyperbolic prose about athletes he had never met.
A writer and editor with close to a decade’s experience, Arvind’s work has been published on Sky Sports, the BBC, the Guardian and other leading websites. He has attended multiple Grand Slams on the ground and provided coverage for Super Bowls and the NBA playoffs.
As a lifelong fan of Arsenal and the Indianapolis Colts, he has mastered the art of managing expectations and can convince anyone that finishing fourth is a moral victory.
When not armchair quarterbacking, Arvind spends his time playing blitz chess online, watching air crash documentaries and smashing controllers after his latest Weekend League defeat.
