Man Utd legend gives his opinion on Paul Pogba revealing his Real Madrid dream

Dimitar Berbatov has talked down Paul Pogba admitting it would be a "dream" to play for Real Madrid, saying he supported lots of other teams when he was at Manchester United.

The France international revealed in a press conference in France this week that every player would love the opportunity to turn out for Los Blancos.

He added that Zinedine Zidane being in charge is another huge draw.

Pogba's comments were slammed by some Manchester United fans who suggested he was being disrespectful to the Old Trafford club.

But Berbatov has played down Pogba's comments as being 'normal' and not an indication he is looking to leave Manchester United for Real Madrid .

Berbatov told Betfair: "Paul Pogba is rarely too far away from the headlines but I'm not concerned about his Real Madrid quotes this week.

"I supported lots of other teams when I played for United because I was a fan of good football. I admired clubs like Real Madrid, Juventus, Bayern Munich.

"I don't think there is anything to worry about here. We live in a world where you can say what you want and I can imagine the words being taken out of context.
