Even Stormzy is impressed with Paul Pogba’s south London accent

He's been practicing

He may be Manchester-bound, but Paul Pogba has seemingly been putting his efforts into perfecting a different English regional accent this summer.

Everyone knows that the French superstar is good mates with grime’s new poster-boy, Stormzy, so much so that Pogba has been working on an impression.

Stormzy, originally from Thornton Heath in Croydon, south London, posted a clip to his Twitter account – which, by the way, is nearly always an entertaining place to spend your daily procrastinations – where Pogba is showing off his new party trick, much to the rapper’s amusement.

Not bad at all.

It’s been a busy couple of months for Stormzy. Without mentioning the numerous packed out festival performances he’s been chalking up, the MC reacted to the recent circus that has been Westminster politics by volunteering himself as a candidate for the next Prime Minister, which garnered quite a bit of support.

Then we had the infamous Thorpe Park birthday bash, which nobody at JOE was jammy enough to land an invite to.

Oh yeah, and there was the small matter of him making a cameo appearance in the adidas video that a lot of people took as confirmation of Pogba’s rumoured move to Manchester United.

Is there a better double-act right now?
