PAUL POGBA:-
The Pogba family raised a young generation full of footballers. The youngest sibling is the Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba who was born in 1993.

His professional debut was with Le Havre’s under-16 team. He relocated to the UK to play for the youth team of Manchester United, much to the disapproval of Le Havre because of the early termination of their contract.
After training as a senior youth member, he played for the Italian team Juventus for four years before going back to Manchester United.
His performance in Juventus earned him several awards such as the Golden Boy Award and the Bravo Award.
