And as per the report, Raiola has already started negotiations with Juventus, exploring the possibility of a return to Turin for the 2018 World Cup winner.

Pogba spent four successful years at Juventus, having joined the club on a free transfer in 2012. The Serie A giants are keen on bringing him back to the club, while the midfielder too is intent on listening to the club’s proposal. (h/t Daily Mail)

Pogba has endured a disappointing 2019/20 campaign. The Frenchman has spent the majority of the campaign out on the sidelines due to an ankle injury. As a result, he has featured just 8 times in all competitions.
