Pogba: This Chelsea star can replace Ronaldo and Messi

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has been told to pick a player who has the ability to follow the heir of world’s two greatest players Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi once their glory days are over.

Perhaps a bit surprisingly, the France international has overlooked his United team-mates to choose Chelsea star Eden Hazard as one of the players for the job alongside Dortmund star Marco Reus and Barcelona winger Neymar.

You never know with those guys. In the future you can see Neymar, Hazard, Reus. There are so many young players who can replace them.

You never know because in a season you can be injured for six months or twelve months… I hope they won’t but you never know what’s going to happen.

Once Ronaldo and Messi’s dominance finally concludes, Hazard will surely be one of the players with the most potential to go on and win the award for the World’s Best Player one day.

The flying winger has rejuvenated himself from last season’s poor performances, and has already scored nine goals to his name alongside three assists.

However, Pogba himself is also right up there as one of the candidates, and it will be very exciting to see which players will be the next two or three kings of modern football after Messi and Ronaldo.
