Paul Pogba reveals he used to wear David Beckham's Adidas Predators as current Manchester United star now looks to follow in legend's footsteps

Paul Pogba has revealed that he looked up to David Beckham as a youngster and even wore the same boots as his former Manchester United idol.

Beckham, 42, made Adidas Predators famous in the 1990s, with thousands of children copying the free-kick specialist in donning the now-iconic footwear.

And Pogba, who is 18 years younger than Beckham, was one of those children.
