One is a football superstar, utterly convinced of his own ability.
The other is the world’s most expensive footballer in the history of the game
And Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba have been brought together at Manchester United.
The two players are now conducting a love in between themselves on their various social media channels.
First Zlatan posted this picture on his Instagram account on Saturday afternoon.
The message “Finally my shirt brought him back” shows you exactly what The Zlatan thinks of his own pulling power at the club.
In this clip though, Pogba claims it’s Zlatan who wants to ride on his coat tails.

“This guy wants to get famous, he wants a picture with me,” he says.
But Zlatan doesn’t take that though, countering: “Come on, I’ll make you famous.”
Ah, lads. What larks they’re going to have this season.
Sure it’s all Instagram pics and giggly videos now, but just wait til Pogba fails to pass to Zlatan when he’s through on goal and then we’ll see if it will still be quite so chummy.
The other question is, what will Zlatan fanboy Ander Herrera make of all this?
United fans everywhere have noticed the midfielder’s habit of staring longingly at his new paramour.
