Retired Juventus hero Claudio Marchisio has spoken of playing with Paul Pogba.

Marchisio counted on the Manchester United midfielder as a Juve teammate before the Frenchman returned to Old Trafford.

He said: "I will tell you an anecdote about Paul. He was very young, it was one of his first training sessions with us. (Andrea) Pirlo and I only took 15 minutes to understand how strong he was. And we knew he was going to steal somebody's place from the team soon.

"Fortunately, the coach found a way to make us play together in midfield."
