Paul Pogba has praised Michael Carrick's impact at Manchester United, stating that he gave the team 'another energy'.
What happened?
Pogba made this comment in an exclusive interview with ESPN, discussing Carrick's first season as manager.
Carrick took over at United in January and led the team to a third-place finish in the Premier League.
Why it matters for Paul Pogba
Pogba's comments come after he made his return to playing for Monaco in November, following a doping ban.
He made six appearances in Ligue 1, but struggled with injury.
What comes next?
Pogba believes that Manchester United will face a tough challenge in the Champions League next season.
He said that the team will have to 'prove themselves' in the competition.
Pogba also discussed France's chances of winning the World Cup again, saying that they have 'probably the best players in the world'.
He warned, however, that this is not enough to win the tournament, and that there will be pressure on the team to perform.
Pogba's last appearance for France was in 2022, and he was part of the team that won the World Cup in 2018.
He is now looking to regain his fitness and form, and to help Monaco succeed in Ligue 1.
