Paul Pogba spoke to the official Juventus media about his return to the 'Bianconeri'. The decision to leave Manchester United for the 'Vecchia Signora' came from the heart. He wanted to enjoy football again and now he feels at home. He said all this himself in his interview.

Paul Pogba is back at Juventus and he couldn't be happier. In an interview with the official media of the 'Bianconeri' club, he was happy to have put his season of uncertainty at Manchester United behind him. Now, he feels at home and it all started from conversations with the coach and the club's board.

"As they say: home sweet home. I feel very much at home. In the first few days I've been here, the atmosphere has been indescribable. I'm very happy and I'm looking forward to playing for Juve, which is my team. I wanted to enjoy football again. I spoke to the coach, I spoke to some of the players who were here before," he said.

And he mentioned these players directly: "Like Claudio - he means Marchisio - I spoke to Patrive - Evra - I'm friends with Cuadrado and Paulo - Dybala - who was here before. I was always in contact with Juve. Then I spoke to Pavel and the president and they told me they wanted me. My heart made the decision.

"It was my heart. I felt this was a good decision and that's why I came here," he added. The spotlight is already on him - and has been for some time now - ahead of his first performances as 'Bianconeri' again. It is the team in which he began to stand out as one of the most skilful midfielders on the planet.
