Pogba & Messi would be invincible at Barcelona - Sacchi


The former Italy coach thinks the Juventus midfielder would be better suited to the reigning European champions than Real Madrid
Barcelona would be invincible if they were to unite Paul Pogba with Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez, according to coaching icon Arrigo Sacchi.
The Juventus midfielder is reported to be the top transfer target for an array of rich clubs, with Barca, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City all allegedly interested suitors.
On Tuesday, rumours started circling that Pogba would stay at Juve for another year with the Scudetto winners having agreed a deal to see the Frenchman depart for Camp Nou next year.
Ex-Madrid director of football Sacchi thinks Barca are a better fit for Pogba than the European champions' Clasico rivals, stating Luis Enrique's side would be potentially unbeatable should he sign for the club.
"Pogba is a player who is still improving and, at the age of 22, he is very interesting for plenty of clubs," the former AC Milan coach told Mundo Deportivo. "He has everything to make his mark on an era of football, his potential is so great.
"He reminds me of ex-Milan midfielder Frank Rijkaard who played artistically, and with such strength and knowledge of play. Like Frank, Pogba is a powerful player.
"Pogba would fit in any team but I think it would be easier for him to fit in at Barca than Madrid. They already have a great team now, but with him they'd be even better.
"Barca would be basically invincible with Pogba in the same team as Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar.
"Besides, I'm not sure if Madrid are even interested in Pogba, although I haven't spoken to club president Florentino Perez about the matter."
Juve will inevitably make a mammoth profit on Pogba should they sell him, having signed him on a free transfer from Manchester United three years ago.
