It is not a secret anymore that Juventus are interested in bringing Paul Pogba back to Turin. The influential midfielder moved to Turin in August of 2012 on a free transfer from Manchester United and was exceptional for the Old Lady.

He quickly turned into one of the best midfielders in the world and was bought by Manchester United for a world record fee of £89m in 2016.

Now, as Juventus try to bring Pogba back to Italy, United are demanding at least £100m to let go of the Frenchman. After investing heavily last summer on Cristiano Ronaldo, Juventus are cash strapped and as such, have decided to sell players to finance the Pogba deal.

Reports suggest that the Serie A Champions are willing to sell as many as 5 players this summer - Joao Cancelo, Douglas Costa, Juan Cuardrado, Mario Mandzukic and Mattia Perin.

Most of these players are said to be wanted this summer by Premier League clubs. Manchester City are reportedly interested in Cancelo, while both United and Tottenham are interested in Douglas Costa.

Now it remains to be seen if United will allow Pogba to leave, as Solskjaer still wants to build a team around the Frenchman.
