Juventus believe they can still sign Paul Pogba

Leicester City v Manchester United - Premier League

Paul Pogba has been a different beast under Manchester United caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Deployed in a free role, the former Juve ace has been scoring goals and laying out assists like it's child's play.

The recent upturn in form and mood has definitely made the fans happy just as much as it seems to have made Paul Pogba. However, despite all of that, Juventus remain interested in Pogba and according to Express, they believe that the Frenchman can be prised away from Old Trafford.

Juve were heavily linked with a move for Pogba when things were going really bad for both United and the player in the final few months of the Jose Mourinho regime. It was widely suggested that either Pogba or Mourinho will end up leaving the club. Thanks to his recent performances, the Old Trafford faithful are now harbouring the belief that the decision taken by the board was indeed the right one.
