Paul Pogba may no longer be a Manchester United player but he is still hitting the headlines at Old Trafford for all the wrong reasons.

Pogba left Man Utd at the end of last month after his contract at the club expired.

He has since agreed a four-year contract with Juventus worth around €8 million per season plus add-ons.

It is a return to Turin for Pogba, who enjoyed four brilliant years at Juventus from 2012 to 2016.

Pogba will be officially announced as a Juventus player on Monday but he underwent his medical on Saturday.

As he arrived for the tests, he was met by around 2000 cheering Juventus fans.

Pogba stopped to sign shirts and take photographs but he refused the request of one onlooker.

One fan appeared to ask Pogba to sign a Manchester United shirt, which was rejected by the French star.

The video has since gone viral and caused anger among a number of Man Utd fans.

Many believe that this is just another example of Pogba being disrespectful towards the club for whom he played with from 2009 to 2012 and 2016 to 2022.

Some have defended the 29-year-old, though, given he has now left Man Utd and is playing for a new club.
