In a conversation with legendary Rio Ferdinand, Paul Pogba said that the Ballon d’Or for the Real Madrid forward is something that will come naturally. For the midfielder, “Kiki’s” current form has already surpassed even the historic starts of the greatest legends who played at the Bernabéu.

Pogba’s standout quotes:

  • The best in the world: “For me, he has been the best player of the whole season. He can only get better; I’m not surprised.”
  • Galáctico comparison: “He scored more goals than Cristiano Ronaldo and R9 (Ronaldo Nazário) in their first season at Real Madrid.”
  • Total connection: “We understand each other. Sometimes I hit the ball badly and he still got there; he’s so fast that I know his runs by heart.”

It’s worth remembering that Pogba is living his own fairy tale after serving the doping ban that kept him out of action for 779 days. Since returning to Monaco last November, the midfielder has shown that his class remains intact.
