Manchester United Paul Pogba’s free transfer move to Juventus could be considered by many as Sir Alex Ferguson’s biggest mistake, during his tenure at the club. The superstar has developed into a worldclass player, since his move to Italy. Signed from Dutch club PSV Eindhoven in 2011, Brazilian youngster Andreas Pereira is another shining midfielder in the Red Devils squad. Though he was born in Belgium, Pereira has played for Belgium’s U15, U16 & U17 squads, yet, now represented the Brazil U20 side in 2014 and on Manchester United’s official webiste quoted, “My heart is Brazilian“.
Italian newspaper Tuttosport recently published a very shocking interview with the 19 year old midfielder, which revealed a lot of things that would surprise quite a few and Pereira admitted he could leave Manchester United soon. Pereira claims Paul Pogba is making an attempt to convince him to join Italian Champions Juventus and play alongside him, as they are both friends since their times at United’s academy. He said,
“Everyone knows that Juve are a great club.”
“I’ve spoken with Pogba many times, he’s a good friend and he told me I’d be well-served in moving to Turin, both personally and professionally, two important things for me.”
“My agent is evaluating the offers we’ve received, including the Bianconeri, it’s not a secret.”
French champions PSG and former club PSV are both interested in the starlet, who produced a fine finish for the U21 side in this week’s 1-1 draw with Sunderland.
