Manchester United winger Anthony Martial says Paul Pogba will win the Ballon d’Or in the next five years. Pogba was the world’s most expensive player until Neymar joined Paris St Germain from Barcelona in a world record £198million transfer earlier this month. Martial believes his compatriot has all it takes to become the best footballer in the world, just that dancing skills and colourful hairstyles are not part of the criteria for winning the award.
‘I would say he is probably the best midfield player in the world,’ United winger Martial says.
‘Paul is very mentally strong and he is very sure of himself.
‘He is a big guy, he is very technical on the ball and he has lots of endurance. He is still young, too, so he has a lot to work on and he can get even better.
‘If he continues to play and improve like he is doing then I think he is also going to win the Ballon d’Or award in the next five years.’
But Pogba has impressed at the start of the new campaign with two goals from two appearances as United have set the early Premier League pace.
