Man Utd transfer news: Paul Pogba to Juventus could be alive after Pavel Nedved hint
MANCHESTER UNITED star Paul Pogba has been heavily linked with Juventus - and a deal could be on the cards after Juve legend Pavel Nedved’s recent statement.
Pogba 'fell out of love' with the game at Man Utd says Hislop
Manchester United midfielder Pogba left Juventus for Old Trafford in 2016 after four glittering years in Turin.
The France international has, though, failed to meet expectations having toiled under the stifling regime of Jose Mourinho.
Manchester United have six days to bring in new recruits but Tuttosport suggest that, despite the deadline creeping closer, Juventus still want Pogba.
The 25-year-old is named on a two-man target list that also includes Lazio bulldozer Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
Juventus have already pulled off one transfer surprise this summer, successfully landing Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid.
Emre Can arrived on a free transfer from Liverpool and Leonardo Bonucci has sensationally returned, 12 months after quitting for AC Milan.
And Juventus legend Nedved, who is a director for the Italian giants, has suggested the Old Lady are still in the market for bid stars.
He told Tuttosport: “It's not over yet.”
Signing both Milinkovic-Savic and Pogba, however, will be difficult.

Emotional ties to Pogba could swing the pendulum their way but United are unwilling to let him go.
They have just six days to land a replacement and are now focusing their efforts on securing a centre-back and right winger instead.
Milinkovic-Savic, meanwhile, recently suggested he was going to stay at Lazio despite interest from United, Chelsea and Juventus.
"Of course I'm staying, do you not see that I'm here?" said Milinkovic-Savic, when a fan asked him about his future.
