Over the past few weeks there has been plenty of speculation as to what is going to happen with Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba this summer, with his agent Mino Raiola saying earlier in the year: “I want the club that buys him to believe in him and be willing to pay for him. If Paul leaves Juventus, it is for the absolute top. If it does not happen this year, it will be next year,” Raiola told Gazzetta dello Sport.
“Paul is at the same level economically as the other big stars and has a similar reputation, so he could stay for another year. But Paul is the only major star who is available at the end of the season.
“If you cannot take Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi or Zlatan Ibrahimovic, you can only go for Paul.”
Of all the clubs interested in the 22-year-old French international it would appear as if Manchester United is willing to pay £55 million to bring him back to Old Trafford.
To back this figure up Juventus chief Giuseppe Marotta said yesterday that any interested club in Pogba would need to come up with £57 million and the Daily Express says that is exactly what Manchester United plans to do with the club willing to put an offer in off £55 million to see him return to the Premiership as their dream summer signing.
