Best of enemies: Kondogbia vs. Pogba

The midfielders have played together at every age for France, but Sunday they will go head to head in a crucial Derby d'Italia clash between Inter and Juventus, says Mark Doyle.

"Paul is like a brother to me — but for 90 minutes this weekend, we’ll be enemies.”

Geoffrey Kondogbia has made it clear that he will go through anyone, even his good friend Paul Pogba, in order to ensure that Inter defeats Juventus in Sunday’s Derby d’Italia at San Siro. Actions speak louder than words, of course, but there is no denying that this is a key battle in Kondogbia’s fledgling Inter career and one that he has to win.
