Paul Pogba gave a lengthy interview in which he talked about the most important moments in his career after the decision to reduce his punishment recently.
The current Juventus star was suspended for 4 years due to proven doping, before the sentence was reduced to 18 months so that he can return to the stadiums again next March.
Pogba played with Manchester United under Jose Mourinho, and revealed that he rejected a move to Pep Guardiola at Manchester City and talked about his future and other exciting details.
Pogba’s relationship with Mourinho
When asked about his relationship with Mourinho, Pogba replied, “My relationship with Mourinho is like a friend and girlfriend, we used to separate and get back together all the time.”
He also added, “In the beginning, the relationship was great, he was the reason for my return to Manchester after we talked and he convinced me that it was the right time to return.”
“I don’t know why the relationship between us turned into hell and we started fighting, we had disagreements as always happens between players and coaches, but I have a lot of respect for him.”
He concluded in this regard, “If I meet Mourinho tomorrow, I will hug him, but we have to sit down one day and discuss what happened at Manchester United.”

In this regard, Pogba said, “Yes, I rejected Pep Guardiola’s attempt to join Manchester City and decided to accept Juventus’ offer.”
Regarding the reasons, he answered, “I was robbed and had problems with extortion in Manchester, I had to leave there.”
He concluded, “Maybe if such problems had not happened, I would have moved to Manchester City, I never closed the door, especially since I left United for free.”
Will Pogba leave Juventus?
Italian media reported that Juventus wants to terminate Pogba’s contract, while the player confirms that he is ready to do anything to continue with the Old Lady.
The French star said about his future, “I am willing to reduce my salary to continue with Juventus.”
He continued, “I only think about training and playing with Juventus.”
He concluded, “I am not the one who should speak, the pitch will speak about what I will offer, and Thiago Motta will judge what he sees from me there.”
