Paul Pogba eyes Juventus reunion?

August 7, 2020 at 6:51 pm

Having batted his eyelids at Real Madrid for the last two seasons, it looks like Paul Pogba might make a different move. The France international has been one of the best players in the world at times, though rarely in the red of Manchester United. However, it looks like the Red Devils star is still more than highly rated enough back in his former club, Juventus.

The Turin-based giants are seemingly desperate to bring Pogba back and finish the uncompleted business of his previous stint. Having lost the UEFA Champions Final towards the end of his Juventus spell, Pogba has made it clear that he would like to win the trophy again. And with his time at United almost certain to end in the summer, a move back to Juventus seems more like a realistic possibility.

And with Real Madrid seemingly looking elsewhere to try and spread their budget out a touch further, a move back to Turin has just become that bit more likely. For now, though, it’s hard to say for sure what will happen next. The uncertainty caused by the 2020 COVID-19 outbreak means that it would be very hard indeed for any club to commit to a mass expenditure of funds.

For Pogba, though, leaving United is the priority. That’s been the angle around the player for some time now, and a move to UEFA Champions League giants like Juventus, as opposed to United who are still trying to return to the top table, would make a very wise decision.

It’s for this reason that we expect Pogba to be moving on, and most likely back to Italy. The links are strong, and the player himself seems to desire a return to Italy if various reports are to be believed. As ever, then, the discussion comes down to price; can Juventus give United a price they would take?
