Former Manchester United striker John Cofie is backing their move for Juventus star Paul Pogba.
The pair played together for United's academy.
"What he has done and what he's doing now is no surprise whatsoever," Cofie, now with Southport, told Sky Sports.
"What happened, happened, but everyone knows the talent he's got. If he does return, they will benefit massively."
"I was quite close to him," adds Cofie. "I used to go to his place quite a lot and he used to come to mine. In that dressing room we were all good friends."
