Like almost every year, Paul Pogba is in Miami for the holidays, and the 2018 world champion is in the Heat’s training room for a very nice little pick-up game. He shone and even allowed himself a Michael Jordan celebration! Just that…
The Euro is not yet over as Paul Pogba is already on vacation to forget the terrible disappointment of the France team. While the Blues started favorites in the competition, they were surprised by Switzerland after a tense penalty shootout. This is also the magic of top athletes: they know how to turn the page quickly and bounce back.
To change his mind, Paul Pogba flew to Miami to unwind under the South Beach sun. And a few days after an epic and viral night with legend Ronaldinho, the Manchester United midfielder tried his hand at basketball. He made it to the Heat’s training hall, and he was pretty impressive for a footballer.

Jimmy Butler, tell your guys to give me a call !! ????????
Despite the elimination in the first round of the playoffs against the Bucks, it’s hard to imagine that Pat Riley will be seduced by the talent of Paul Pogba… Even if it must be recognized, his gestures on the shot are far from bad. This is not the first time that the brilliant midfielder is noticed across the Atlantic, since after Euro 2016, his 1 against 1 with Romelu Lukaku had made the buzz.
Many footballers love the NBA and basketball. Few can compete with Paul Pogba ball in hand, however.
