Paul Pogba 'wants to join Cristiano Ronaldo at Juventus' | OneFootball

Paul Pogba has his heart set on a return to Juventus in order to play alongside Cristiano Ronaldo.

At least, that’s according to Italian outlet Tuttosport, who claim the World Cup winner has grown tired of playing under José Mourinho and has been inspired to seek a return to Serie A by Ronaldo’s sensational switch to Juventus.

It’s a pretty difficult rumour to believe, but Tuttosport were one of the first outlets to report that Juve were interested in Ronaldo, and perhaps their story isn’t totally without foundation.

They also cite a conversation Pogba was filmed having with Bianconeri midfielder Blaise Matuidi during the post-World Cup final celebrations as evidence to support their claim.

In the footage, Matuidi asks Pogba if he’d return to Juventus, to which the United midfielder replies: “Aaaah, the Old Lady! The Old Lady!”

Pogba’s form has been rather underwhelming since he moved to Old Trafford in a deal worth €105m in the summer of 2016 and his relationship with Mourinho became so strained last season that at one point, he lost his place in the side to Scott McTominay.

The Frenchman played by far the best football of his career to date in Turin, but we’ll believe this one when we see it.
