Paper Talk: Man Utd at odds with Juve as stunning two-for-one Pogba package revealed

Manchester United have hit an impasse with Juventus over Paul Pogba’s valuation, while Chelsea are planning another exciting swoop – all in the latest Paper Talk.

 

JUVE OFFER MAN UTD TWO STARS FOR POGBA

Juventus are preparing to offer Manchester United a £125million package including Aaron Ramsey and Adrien Rabiot in a bid to bring Paul Pogba back to Turin, according to reports.

Pogba has remained a divisive figure at Old Trafford since his move back to the club from Juve in 2016, with the Frenchman unable to show his best talent in the past few seasons.

The midfielder has long been linked with a move back to Italy with Juve, while Spanish giants Real Madrid are also said to be interested.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport (via the Daily Mail), Juve’s interest in Pogba has not waned and their latest offer for the 26-year-old includes Rabiot and Ramsey and will rise to £125million with wages.

Both have failed to tie down regular spots in Maurizio Sarri’s side after moves from Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal, respectively, and Sarri is reportedly open to the pair leaving.

With Juventus’ offer firmly on the table, however, the Sunday Mirror claims that United want £130million for Pogba, who has suffered a lack of game time this term due to injuries.

It is said that United are keen to offload Pogba before Euro 2020 kicks off as they look to have funds available for their summer spending.
