Zinedine Zidane confirms Real Madrid's Paul Pogba interest

Zinedine Zidane talks up the ability of compatriot Paul Pogba, while also revealing that Real Madrid are interested in signing the Juventus star.

Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane has described Paul Pogba as being a "fantastic" player who "has everything", increasing speculation that Los Blancos may make an official approach.

The Juventus midfielder is a reported target for the Spanish giants, as well as Premier League side Manchester City, who are said to be weighing up a potential £80m bid.

Zidane, currently in charge of Real Madrid Castilla, admitted that last season's La Liga runners-up are indeed interested, but refused to confirm how far that interest will go this summer.

Speaking to French radio station RTL, he said: "[Pogba] has everything. I think that he's fantastic. What I like about him is that he has it all.

"He is a complete player who also has the ability to score goals because he likes to get forward. In terms of footballing qualities, he is extraordinary.

"A lot of clubs are interested in him and so are Real. It is natural that talented players are of interest to all the big clubs. For his continued growth it is important that he has a healthy environment and I hope that he will always have that."

Pogba made 43 appearances for club and country last season, scoring 11 goals from his central midfield position.
