Liverpool legend, Graeme Souness, has said that he would never sign Paul Pogba, noting that the Juventus and France midfielder is extremely talented but a wasted talent.
Speaking on the Three Up Front podcast, Souness said, “If I were a Premier League manager, there are no circumstances under which I would take a punt on bringing in Paul Pogba,” Souness said.
“He’s only played 39 games since the 2021/22 season. He is extremely talented, but he’s a wasted talent.
“The worst thing that happened to him was winning the World Cup because, from that point on, he just sat in his armchair.”
He, however, warned Premier League clubs against signing him.
Pogba, who is currently a free agent after his contract with Juventus was terminated on Friday has been linked with Arsenal and other Premier League clubs.
