Paul Pogba has revealed that he has dreamt of playing for Arsenal and Barcelona.
The Juventus midfielder is enjoying another superb season in Turin and is now firmly established in Didier Deschamps' France team, looking forward to the summer's World Cup in Brazil.
Juventus scored a coup by tempting Pogba to the club upon the expiration of his contract with Manchester United in 2012.
But the Italians could have come a cropper if Arsenal or Barcelona had made a big push for his signature.

"I am at Juventus, but when I was a child I dreamt of playing for Arsenal and Barcelona", Pogba admitted to La Repubblica.
Pogba's current contract with Juventus runs until the summer of 2016, though the Bianconeri are taking steps to persuade the France midfielder to extend that arrangement.
However, he continues to have a number of suitors, including Arsenal, with Paris Saint-Germain said to be preparing an offer in excess of €50m to take him to the French capital.
