Juventus launching multi-player swap bid for Man Utd midfielder Pogba

Juventus are launching a multi-player swap bid for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

Gazzetta dello Sport says Juve are launching a plan to bring Pogba back to Turin just three years after his €105m transfer to Old Trafford.

Pogba had been pushing for Real Madrid, but as they spent big already on Eden Hazard and Luka Jovic, Juve appears now the more likely avenue.

Juve aim to lower the price-tag significantly by including players in an exchange deal, with the likes of left-back Alex Sandro, winger Douglas Costa or forward Paulo Dybala all mentioned as makeweights.

Pogba enjoyed four years at Juve and is regular tourist in Turin visiting friends and former teammates, most recently last month at a party for Andrea Barzagli's retirement.
