Manchester United attacker Jesse Lingard has expressed his delight at being reunited with Paul Pogba this season.

Manchester United splashed the cash to secure the services of Paul Pogba last summer and while the jury is still out as to whether the Frenchman will be able to justify the record £89million price tag, there is no doubting that he has managed to raise the morale of the dressing room.

United attacker Jesse Lingard is clearly close to Pogba and the England international has stated that he is very happy to have been reunited with his old pal this season.

Lingard told the club's official website: "It's been great. I've known him since our time together with the Under-18s and it's great to have him back and great to play alongside him again.

"We obviously won the FA Youth Cup together in the Academy so to take that into the first team and win more silverware has been brilliant."
