Dybala hopes to reunite with Pogba in the future

pogba helped Man United defeat Juventus on Wednesday Champions League clash and his ex Argentine team mate would hope to play his trade along him again in the future.

Both players spent a season together at Juventus in 2015-16 and the Argentine freely admits that he would like to be reunited with his "good friend"

Paulo Dybala has admitted that he would like to be reunited with good friend Paul Pogba but insisted that he has no intention of leaving Juventus because of his burgeoning partnership with Cristiano Ronaldo.

Pogba and Dybala spent a season playing together in Turin before the Frenchman's then world-record transfer to Manchester United in the summer of 2016.

The juventus forward has been repeatedly linked with the Premier League outfit in the interim, while speculation surrounding Pogba's future at Old Trafford has also intensified in recent months on account of the midfielder's allegedly strained relationship with manager Jose Mourinho.

Presently, Dybala and Pogba remain adversaries, with the pair having faced off twice in the Champions League over the past three weeks.

He scored the only goal of the game as Juve triumphed in Manchester last month but Pogba helped United claim a dramatic 2-1 win in Turin on Wednesday to keep his side on course to qualify for the last 16.

"It was great to see to see Paul again because we're good friends," the 24-year-old told reporters on Thursday.

"The first game [at Old Trafford] was amazing for me, and the second for him.

"But it was just nice to play against him. We have remained in touch since he left [Juventus].

"We're still very close and who knows, maybe in the future we can play together again on the same team..."


However, Dybala is loving life at Juve right now, especially as the arrival of five-time Champions League winner Ronaldo has significantly boosted the Bianconeri's hopes of finally ending their 22-year European Cup drought.

"We have a good chance this year because Cristiano is a great player and now we have more options," the Argentina international enthused.

"But we have been playing well for years. We have lost two finals in the past four years and last year we played a great game against Real and were unlucky to lose.

"So yes, I think that we can do it this year. But the goal every year is to win every title.
"Obviously this year it may look like the Champions League is an obsession but we're also focused on domestic trophies.

"We want to win another Scudetto."

Juve are certainly entitled to aim high this season with Ronaldo and Dybala forming an excellent understanding in attack, with their duo having already racked up 14 goals between them in all competitions.

Dybala acknowledges that there is still room for improvement but he is enjoying playing alongside the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.

"We're happy working together and have scored a lot of goals," he said. "We already knew how he plays and we have to adapt a little bit and work to improve our partnership.
"But we're doing well. I think we're going to score a lot more goals together!"

Of course, Ronaldo's arrival at Juve resulted in the departure of Dybala's compatriot, Gonzalo Higuain, who joined AC Milan on loan during the summer.

Having already been reunited with Pogba this week, Dybala is now hoping that he will also get to face his former striker partner, with the Rossoneri striker set to make his return from a back problem when Juve visit San Siro on Sunday night.

"I'm hoping that Higuain will play because we're good friends," he added.
"He's had a little injury but I know he's recovering well, so I hope to see him out on the pitch."
