Cristiano Ronaldo wants Juventus to sign Paul Pogba

What a duo they could be

According to latest reports in Spain, Juventus have been asked to go all out in their pursuit of Frenchman Paul Pogba after being urged to do so by Cristiano Ronaldo. Pogba has been heavily linked with an exit with Real Madrid being the likeliest of potential destinations.

However, the Manchester United academy product who impressed after joining Juventus on a free transfer as a very young player could very well make a return to Turin.

Pogba is expected to leave in the summer if United cannot make it to the top 4 and qualify for the UEFA Champions League. The way things are going, Champions League qualification looks like a distant possibility. Even though United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has publicly backed Pogba and talked down the chances of a possible departure, it wouldn't come across as much of a surprise if Pogba is not at Old Trafford next season.

It has also been claimed that Manchester United will only sell Pogba if they can get €160 million for the player.
