Matteo Darmian has opened up on former teammate Paul Pogba and the positive attitude he brought to the dressing room at the club.

Pogba has been criticized heavily in recent times especially over speculations on a move away from United with Real Madrid and Juventus showing interest in the Frenchman.

However, Darmian stated that all through his time at United, he never saw Pogba showing a willingness to leave the club.

He told The Guardian: "Did I see Pogba unhappy or willing to leave?

"No, I honestly didn't see him sad or unhappy, quite the opposite, for all the time I was in Manchester, Paul was absolutely happy with his decision to go back there.

"He really cares about doing well at Manchester United."

Damian who has now returned to the Serie A also spoke about his first game with United.

“I’ll be honest and say that I remember my first game for United being an incredible emotion,” he added.

“I felt like a child. Old Trafford is something fantastic, there’s a reason that it’s called the theatre of dreams.

"My debut was perfect because we beat Tottenham at home and I heard the fans screaming my name: a wonderful feeling.

"I felt a lot of pride but also the responsibility to play for one of the best clubs in the world.”
