French midfielder Paul Pogba says that he is "happy at Juventus" in light of Neymar's comments urging the 23-year-old to move to Barcelona.

Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has insisted that while he appreciates Barcelona forward Neymar's recent kind words, he is "happy" at his current club.

Last week, Neymar revealed that he is desperate for his Spanish employers to bring Pogba to La Liga, claiming that the Frenchman "would fit in well" at Camp Nou.

Pogba has thanked the Brazilian for his comments, but has pledged his immediate future to the Italian champions.

"It's nice that a great player like Neymar appreciates me," Pogba told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "Everyone wants to play with the champions, but I'm happy at Juventus and I'm focused on winning the Scudetto."

Manchester City have also been strongly linked with a move for the midfielder, who famously left Manchester United on a free transfer in 2012.
