Manchester United and France midfielder Paul Pogba expressed his delight in visiting Mecca, the holy site of Islam in Saudi Arabia, through an Instagram video on Tuesday.
Pogba will soon join up with the France squad as the World Cup gets underway on June 14.
And the devout Muslim has found time ahead of the tournament to make a pilgrimage to Mecca during the holy month of Ramadan.
“Only the person that comes here can understand the feeling,” the 25-year-old Manchester United star said in an Instagram video from the holy city of Mecca.
“This a beautiful place — beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. And the feeling… I cannot even explain to you.”
