After the triumph in the World Cup, Adil Rami praised one of the brightest stars of the French national team, Paul Pogba, and said that he has already become a leader.
During the club season, the defender, who often clashed with the coach of "Manchester United" and was frequently criticized, revealed himself in all his glory in Russia.
The 25-year-old footballer was a crucial part of the "Les Bleus" team and finished his performance with a goal in the final, which allowed Didier Deschamps' disciples to secure a safe lead.
"I can tell you that Paul Pogba, I don't know how and I don't know from where, has become a leader. He proved that to us," Rami told "L'Equipe."
"He is a technical player, he has a lot of talent. He was able to fight in defense. Everyone loves players who perform tricks. I can tell you that Paul became a leader. He was the one who showed the way."
According to the "Marseille" defender, Pogba's character is even more important than his skill.
"Everyone expects opponents to be stunned, but that's not what football is about. You have to sweat, give your body for the goal. There are matches where you have to roll up your sleeves. Some people understood this, especially him," Rami added.
"He was the strong man in the French team. He helped the team in defense. I could talk about everyone, but Paul showed maturity. Technique is good, but the most important thing is attitude."
Now Pogba will seek to prove his worth in the ranks of "Man United." On the other hand, according to rumors, he is interested in "Barcelona."
