Lyon Manager Admits 'New Pogba' Could Move to Juventus as Top Clubs Circle

Olympique Lyonnais manager Bruno Genesio has compared midfielder Tanguy Ndombele to Manchester United star Paul Pogba, saying he could see the player develop at a club like Juventus in a similar manner to the now France captain.

Ndombele has enjoyed a stellar season for Lyon so far, with his performances in both Ligue 1 and the Champions League earning him links with virtually every big club in Europe at one stage or another.

And Genesio said that while it seems inevitable that Ndombele will land at one of the European giants one day, he'd love the 22-year-old to stay put for a few more seasons.
