Sir Alex Ferguson Made Paul Pogba Cry at Man United Says Player's Mother

Published on: 07 June 2016

"?Few players are as highly coveted as Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba and few fanbases understand the loss of such a massive player as Man United supporters, so it may come as a surprise that his decision to leave was, in part, motivated by how Sir Alex Ferguson treated him.


The Frenchman opted against signing a new contract at Old Trafford after having his first team opportunities limited and he eventually joined Juventus on a free transfer.


He has since become one of the best and most highly valued players in the world, so much so that his former club Man United are linked with bids for him on a yearly basis.

His mother, however, has relayed the story of how Ferguson and his treatment on the midfielder left him in tears.


"I said: "?What? Ferguson coming to my house! He came alone," Yeo Moriba told AFP.


"We had got together with his brothers and we decided: he won't re-sign. Ferguson punished him, he didn't play him, Paul was alone. 


"He even cried in Ferguson's office over the way he was treated."?


Pogba is reportedly back on Man United's radar this summer as Jose Mourinho is a huge fan of his talents although a bid of more than €100m would have to be submitted to get Juve's attention, according to his agent."?"?
