Paul Pogba declares Man United his

By Joshua Walters

Paul Pogba has revealed his heartfelt feelings for Manchester United and Juventus.

The French World Cup winner was recruited into the Manchester United academy in 2009 and left for Juventus in 2012 due to limited first-team opportunities.

Pogba established himself as one of the most promising young players in the world at Juventus and helped them to four consecutive Serie A titles, two Coppa Italia and two Supercoppa Italiana titles.

He returned to Manchester United last season, and told UEFA.com, before the two sides met in the Champions League at Old Trafford on Tuesday, that Juventus developed his talent while the English outfit is his home.

"I developed as a player there (Juve) and I have enormous respect for the club, but now I'm home again. I came through the youth academy here," said the Frenchman who has been linked with a move to Barcelona.

"I'm home here and it will always be so. I grew up with my teammates and we are all reunited in the senior team, so it's a beautiful story."

"The career I've had and the one I have now, with the return to Manchester, it's really excellent."
