France midfielder, Paul Pogba, has backed Portugal international, Cristiano Ronaldo, saying he was a disciplined and consummate professional during their time at Manchester United dressing room.
Pogba and Ronaldo shared the dressing room last season after the football icon left Juventus and returned to Manchester United after 12 years of his departure.

However, Pogba only shared the pitch with Ronaldo last season and has a lot to say about the former Real Madrid man’s attitude to the game.
Speaking with Field of Sports recently, the midfielder said contrary to the impression most people have about Ronaldo, he was a very disciplined player when they played together.
“The discipline of Ronaldo was unbelievable – I’ve never seen this. The discipline is on another level.
“Someone that’s been there every single day and doesn’t stop – that’s Cristiano.
“Every day! Some days you’re like, I’m ok! But he doesn’t miss one day. His discipline to do it every single day – this is something.” Pogba said.
Cristiano Ronaldo is currently a free agent following the termination of his contract with Manchester United before the end of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
