Former France star Franck Ribery insists Paul Pogba can still be a success with Juventus.

The midfielder has managed just 35 minutes of action this season after arriving in the summer from Manchester United.

But Ribery told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Have I heard from Pogba? Yes, before he returns to the field in the derby. Paul just needs to find continuity. But the champion is not discussed and he still has a lot to give to football."

Ribery, recently an assistant coach with Salernitana, also said: "Rabiot? Adrien is a rare, very strong player.

"He has a great physique, but also an incredible progression. He plays with both feet and has a good shot. When he's on top, he flies."
