Zlatan Ibrahimovic backs Manchester United teammate Paul Pogba to shine for the Red Devils once he has fully settled in the Premier League.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has backed Manchester United teammate Paul Pogba to shine for the Red Devils once he has fully settled into life in the Premier League.

Pogba re-joined Man United for a world-record £90m fee in last summer's transfer window and the midfielder's performances have been closely scrutinised over the last couple of months.

The 23-year-old is yet to show his best form for Man United, but Ibrahimovic, who is believed to share a close relationship with Pogba, has insisted that the Frenchman's "time will come".

"Paul is working hard. He has a big pressure on him, he came for a big transfer sum and people expect him to do magic in a short new time," Ibrahimovic told reporters.

"We have four new players, a new coach, he had been doing great things in Italy but we know he is a good player and he will bring it out for Manchester United. If the team is fantastic it will make it easier for the individual. His time will come."

Pogba has scored four times in 16 appearances for Man United this season.
