9 Players Who Have Flourished Since Leaving Man Utd
3. Paul Pogba
Paul Pogba joined Manchester United as a trainee in 2010 but made few appearances and struggled to cement himself within the squad. This is unsurprising as he was a young player thrown into one of the worlds most successful clubs. Nevertheless he moved to Juventus in 2012 on a free transfer and has now become a regular player for the Italian champions. Now 21, he is a French international and looks like an extremely promising midfield prospect. Performing well at the 2014 World Cup, he looked to be one of France's best players and earned himself the award for Young Player of the Tournament. His time at United was short-lived and he was even accused of being disrespectful to the club by Sir Alex Ferguson. But despite his early setbacks he is once again playing football at the highest level and will be looking to make another impact in the Champions League next season. As he has begun to blossom as a player and remembering he is only 21 years old, many United fans must be wishing they had held onto the driving midfielder.
