Paul Pogba has revealed that Paul Scholes was the player that most impressed him during his time at Manchester United.

The Frenchman joined Man United as a 16-year-old in 2009 and spent three years at Old Trafford before making the move to Juventus, where he has developed into one of the most in-demand midfielders in world football.

When questioned on his time in England, Pogba, 23, revealed his admiration of the quality of Scholes.

"Paul Scholes. 'Scholsey'. His right foot. It was perfectly tuned. He could shoot 10 times, and the ball would end up in the same spot 10 times," Pogba told So Foot.

Pogba only made seven first-team appearances during his time at Man United.
