Gianluigi Buffon, one of the greatest goalkeepers, has recently mocked Ferguson over his decision to allow Pogba leave Manchester United. During the press-conference, ahead of the Champions League semi-final second leg with Real Madrid, Buffon said:
France midfielder Pogba, 22, develop into one of the world's best players less than three years after his controversial exit from Old Trafford. And he still cannot believe United lacked vision and failed to do more to keep Pogba, who walked out on a free transfer frustrated by his lack of first-team opportunities and unhappy at the terms of the new contract he had been offered.
"I have never seen a player who is so good at his age, he is so strong, so technically gifted, has exceptional all-round play.
"Pogba can do things only Pogba can, similar to Messi and Ronaldo. United let one of the top players in the world leave, but that has only been good news for us."
Buffon rubbed salt into United's wounds by insisting that if Pogba leaves Juve this summer he is likely to command a new world-record fee, in stark contrast to the £1m compensation for development costs they received for a player who never made a first-team start and was restricted to seven appearances off the bench.
United's neighbours Manchester City are now leading a queue of the world's top clubs trying to sign Pogba. "Of course he will be linked with the teams with big money like Chelsea, Real Madrid, PSG and City but at the moment he is achieving dreams at Juventus," added Buffon.
"If any team wanted to buy him I would feel sure that they would have to break the world-record fee.
"It is not up to me to speak about his future, only he can decide that. What I can say is he is very happy at Juventus - we see that every day."
