Paul Pogba’s mum shows she’s his biggest fan with bags of the new Manchester United ace’s No.6 shirt
IT IS said that mothers are always their sons’ biggest fans.
And the certainly appears to true of Paul Pogba’s mum.
Yeo Moriba was pictures on the way to the Lowry hotel, where she is staying, with bags and bags of her son’s No.6 shirts, purchased from the Manchester United megastore.
One of the biggest justifications in splashing out such a huge fee on the midfielder, is the fact the club are likely to recoup a big chunk on shirt sales.
And Moriba his doing her part.
She has always been right behind Pogba’s career and famously stood up to Sir Alex Ferguson during the Frenchman’s first stay at Old Trafford.
Paul Pogba's mum, Yeo Moriba, has always been right behind her son
When the 23-year-old arrived in Manchester for a medical ahead of his world-record £89million move to United, Moriba could be seen beaming in the back of the car.
She has been labelled the most formidable woman in football — and accompanied Pogba to the Ballon d’Or award ceremony, where he was named in the FifPro Team of the Year.
The Frenchman left United on a free transfer after being constantly overlooked by Fergie in central midfield — with Paul Scholes even having to come out of retirement.
Moriba confronted the legendary Scot and her son moved to Juventus.
In Serie A, he grew and established himself as one of the game’s leading midfield players.
He won four league titles in a row as well as two Italian Cups.
In 2015, only defeat to Barcelona in the Champions League final prevented a historic Treble.
