Celtic-bound midfielder Kouassi Eboue wants to follow in the footsteps of Manchester United star Paul Pogba.
Celtic-bound midfielder Kouassi Eboue has suggested to The Scottish Sun that Manchester United star Paul Pogba is his role model.
Eboue is reportedly set to join Scottish Premiership giants Celtic in the January transfer window.
According to Scotzine, the 19-year-old midfielder has flown out to Dubai with the Bhoys and will join the Scottish club in a £2.8million move from Russian side Krasnodar.
The Ivorian has revealed that he wants to follow in the footsteps of United midfielder Pogba.
The France international joined the Red Devils from Italian giants Juventus in the summer of 2016 for a transfer fee reported by The Scottish Sun to be worth £89 million.
“I want to do what Pogba has in football – and MORE,” Eboue told The Scottish Sun.
Pogba is one of the best footballers on the planet and is a world-class player. The 23-year-old has not had the best of times at United so far, but there can be no denial that he is a superb talent.
Eboue is a very talented and promising midfielder, and his comments suggest that he is not lacking in confidence.
