Eric Abidal Tells Paul Pogba Barcelona Are The Best Team In The World - Not Real Madrid
Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba should not forget Barcelona's standing in the game when deciding on his next move, says Eric Abidal.
Eric Abidal has told Paul Pogba to remember that Barcelona are "the best club in the world" as he contemplates his next move.
Reports in Spain have suggested Real Madrid are going to make a big play to try and sign the Juventus and France midfielder this summer, with the player also linked to both Manchester clubs in the Premier League.
Barca, though, have also been long-term admirers and Abidal – a four-time Liga winner during six years at Camp Nou between 2007 and 2013 – thinks Pogba, 23, should bear Barca's stature in mind.
"It is no surprise that the great teams want to sign Pogba," he said to Cadena COPE.
"People talk about his talent, but he is still young. He is doing very well at Juventus but he did not show his best level during his first Euro 2016 game.
"He can be an interesting player for Real Madrid, but he is already a key piece for Juventus.
"I don't know what his dream is and he has to make his own decision, but Barca is the best club in the world."
