Paul Pogba takes mother as his guest to Ballon d'Or gala as Juventus midfielder makes FIFPro World XI

Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba opted to take his mother Yeo as his guest to FIFA's Ballon d'Or gala on Monday night.

While many other players took their wives and supermodel girlfriends, it is a refreshingly humble gesture from Pogba, who became the youngest person to make the FIFPro World XI since Lionel Messi's inclusion in the 2009 line-up. 

The France international was all the while dressed to impress with a flashy gold-flowered dinner jacket and double breast combo.

Pogba joined Juve from Manchester United in 2012 and has since gone on to make over 150 appearances for the Turin-based club in all competitions.

Last season, he played a key role in the Old Lady's Serie A and Copa Italia double, while also helping them to reach the Champions League final against Barcelona.  

This term, Pogba has scored five goals and provided five assists in 24 appearances so far.
