Pogba: "My relationship with Mourinho was like a relationship between a boy and a girl"

Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has recalled his time at Manchester United under Jose Mourinho.

The French midfielder became the most expensive player in world football after completing a £89 million transfer in 2016. Mourinho insisted on this deal as soon as he became the Red Devils' coach.

"Our relationship was like that between a boyfriend and girlfriend, we were always fighting and making up. It started out great, he was one of the main reasons I came back to Manchester. I had a conversation with him during which he convinced me to come back.

I don't know why it turned into a nightmare and we fought. Because I didn't want to have a conflict. I did not start the quarrels. Our opinions differed, as sometimes happens between a coach and players. But I respect him a lot. If I see him tomorrow, we will hug each other! But one day we will have to sit down together and discuss it all," Pogba was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.
