Juventus to bid £120m for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba?

Juventus are reportedly prepared to spend £120m in order to sign Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

Pogba and his agent Mino Raiola have both stated that they are pushing for a transfer away from Old Trafford this summer, despite United's reluctance to sell the World Cup winner.

The France international allegedly prefers a second spell in Turin, three years since he made the decision to depart the Serie A champions.

According to The Times, Juventus are willing to pay £120m for the 26-year-old at a time when they are not short of options in the middle of the pitch.

Pogba is currently scheduled to play a significant part of United's pre-season tour of Australia and Asia, although that will not prevent any discussions regarding a potential deal.

A report earlier this week suggested that Real Madrid remain in the race and are willing to shell out £72m plus either Isco or Gareth Bale.
