According to widespread reports in Italy, Paul Pogba’s agent Mino Raiola says the Manchester United midfielder will return to Juventus after his contract expires next summer.

The 28-year-old began his senior career at United, but only made three first-team appearances in the 2011/12 season before moving to the Italian club.

Pogba played 124 games for Juventus over four years and helped them to four consecutive Serie A titles as well as two Coppa Italia and two Supercoppa Italiana successes and a Champions League final.

He returned to Old Trafford in 2016 on a £ 89.3m deal, but after six years at the club, he will become a free agent in 2022.

Corriere dello Sport quoted Raiola, who told the Italian TV broadcaster Rai Sport: “Pogba’s contract expires next year.

“We will speak to and see with Manchester (United).”

“Surely Turin stayed in his heart and he cares a lot about these things.

“The possibility of returning to Juventus is there, but it also depends on Juve.”

Earlier this week, Sky Sports News reported that Pogba was impressed with Manchester United’s hiring this summer and is now more open to signing a contract extension.

Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are among a number of clubs keen to sign Pogba in January.

Talks between Pogba’s agents and United about his future are believed to continue and although no decision has been made yet, he comes up with the idea of ​​extending his stay in Manchester after seeing the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, Raphael Varane and saw Jadon Sancho.

He continues to have a fantastic relationship with manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and the rest of the coaching staff and players.

Solskjaer believes Ronaldo’s return can help Manchester United winners again and convince Pogba to dedicate his long-term future to the club.

When asked about Pogba’s current situation, Solskjaer said: “It’s up to us to get results and to prove to ourselves that we can win trophies.

“I think everyone who signs with Manchester United wants to win trophies and be part of a victorious Manchester United.

“It’s the most magical feeling in the world to be part of a winning Manchester United team.”

Solskjaer believes the club’s summer recruiting has given him a squad that can compete on all fronts this season.

“We’ve had enough disappointments, that’s for sure, and some great moments too,” he said. “But this team has grown and matured over the last few seasons. That was always the plan (when I came in), we said that in three years we would have a squad with experience and quality that could be challenging.”

“With players like David (De Gea) and Harry Maguire, who has been here for a few years, experience and quality give you the backbone of the team, and Raphael and Cristiano join them.

“It’s not the last piece, you can never say it’s the last piece, but it’s something you have to buy unless you’ve already won it yourself.”
