Chelsea Ladies forward Eniola Aluko has revealed on Twitter that she is expecting big things from Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba at this summer’s European Championships.
The powerhouse appears primed to be one of the stars of Euro 2016, where he will be charged with leading a French side shorn of the likes of Raphael Varane, Karim Benzema and Lassana Diarra to the title.
Writing on her @EniAlu handle, the England striker has revealed she’s expecting a remarkable level of consistency from Pogba this term.
“I’m banking on Pogba doing something audacious in each Euro 16 game,” the Nigerian forward proclaimed, somewhat optimistically.
Love this! I’m banking on Pogba doing something audacious each Euro16 game. Nice to see you too 🙂 https://t.co/r7CJ4qCMDA

The midfielder’s form this season has clearly caught the eye of ex-Blues boss Jose Mourinho, as well as Aluko.
The Sun reported on Friday that Manchester United are keen on signing the powerhouse this summer for a mooted £60 million—which would be a record British fee.
