Former Manchester United star, Paul Pogba, has claimed that Bruno Fernandes would be a Ballon d’Or top-three contender if he played for Manchester City instead of the Red Devils.
Despite sharing a dressing room with Fernandes at Old Trafford, Pogba believes his former teammate’s individual brilliance has been overshadowed by United’s lack of silverware.
Since Fernandes arrived in 2020, City have dominated the Premier League with four straight titles.
Speaking on the Rio Meets podcast, Pogba argued: “Do you honestly think Bruno Fernandes could do more than he already does at United?
“For me, you put him in City, he is in the Ballon d’Or top three, with the stats this season, but when you don’t win, we don’t think about it. That’s life. That’s football.”
