Juventus have reportedly opened talks with Mino Raiola, the agent of Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba, over a potential summer move for the Frenchman.
Pogba joined United in 2016 in a world record deal at the time, costing them around £89m from Juventus.

However, he has has never hit the heights expected of him since returning to the cub and is now out of contract in the summer.
It is looking highly unlikely that he will sign a new deal with the Red Devils and a return to Juventus could be on the cards.
French giants Paris Saint-Germain have also been linked with the midfielder whilst Real Madrid have been rumoured to be interested in Pogba for a number of years.
However, according to Gazzetta dello Sport (via Caught Offside), Italian side Juventus are reportedly already in contact with the players agent and have offered a contract that would see him earn around £6.2m-per-year.
Due to Pogba’s contract expiring in the summer, he is eligible to sign a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs, so a potential move back to Juve could be concluded sooner rather than later.
Meanwhile, Ralf Rangnick refused to mention Cristiano Ronaldo when asked about the player in his pre-Manchester derby press conference, instead focusing on Marcus Rashford.
“A few things that happened in the last couple of weeks, or two months, or one and a half months could have been foreseen by nobody.
“Now with Edinson at least being available for the upcoming games, we have other options.
“With Marcus Rashford, we have another player – I will assist and continuously be behind him and with him to develop him.
“We have seen that with quite a few other young players in the past and I don’t see why this shouldn’t happen with Marcus. He’s got abundant talent, he’s got the pace, the physicality.
“He’s got everything you need for a modern striker, no matter if he is playing from the wing or in the centre.
“I will put all my energy into that to help him to take the same pathway that other players did in the last three months.”
