Former Juventus striker Alessandro Matri says Paul Pogba's poor timekeeping this week was no one-off.

Pogba was dropped by coach Max Allegri for their Europa League win against SC Freiburg after arriving late for a team meeting the previous day.

Matri was at Juve during Pogba's first spell with the club and says the Frenchman did something similar under then coach Antonio Conte.

“These are things that happen, but it is necessary to understand if it has happened other times," he told TMW.

"When I was at Juve it happened that Pogba was late for a workout and Conte did not call him for a game."
