Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba would be the ideal replacement for current Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard according to Michael Owen.

Pogba began his career in England with Manchester United and Owen believes he would shine in the Premier League.

“Paul Pogba is still very young and he is extremely talented,” Owen said as a pundit on BT Sport.

“I believe that he is one of the best midfielders in the game.

“His style would suit the Premier League and I think he would be the ideal replacement for Steven Gerrard at Liverpool.

“Gerrard will not play forever and it is time that Liverpool seriously consider a replacement for him.”

It is unknown whether Pogba would be keen on a move to Anfield and there are other clubs such as PSG who are also interested in the French international.
