Pogba impressing at Juventus

Juventus caretaker manager Massimo Carrera says he has been impressed by summer signing Paul Pogba.

Carrera was speaking after the Italian champions had secured a 5-1 win in their annual pre-season friendly at Villar Perosa.

"Pogba's a good player and above all a young talent," he told the club's official website.

"He was born in 1993, and can improve a great deal by training alongside champions."

The 19-year-old signed a four-year deal with the Bianconeri after turning down a new deal to stay at Manchester United.

United manager Sir Alex Ferguson had predicted a bright future for Pogba but the Frenchman found regular first team opportunities rare at Old Trafford and opted to leave in the summer.
