Hugo Lloris backs Paul Pogba to impress in the World Cup

Paul Pogba is a “true leader” whose ability will be fully recognised at this World Cup, according to France goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

The Manchester United midfielder has been one of France’s star performers in Russia as Les Bleus have progressed to the quarter-finals of the tournament.

Didier Deschamps has played the 25-year-old in a more advanced role than he usually adopts at United, with Pogba partnered by the more defensive-minded N’Golo Kante and Blaise Matuidi.
