Pogba dreaming of Juventus move, suggests Raiola
Manchester United's Paul Pogba has been dreaming of a return to Juventus, his agent Mino Raiola has suggested.
Raiola is never shy in stoking transfer speculation about his players and did so once again when briefly speaking to Italy's TuttoMercato about Pogba.
Rumours have increased about Pogba's next move with the player yet to sign a new contract at United, with his current deal due to expire in June of 2022.

That means he can start speaking to clubs about a free transfer in January unless an Old Trafford extension is agreed beforehand.
Pogba has been in indifferent form this season as the Red Devils have struggled under manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
A thigh injury suffered in France training during the international break means it is unlikely he will be back in a red shirt until the new year.
And the last time he featured in the Premier League he lasted just 15 minutes, getting sent off after coming on as a half-time substitute in a humbling 5-0 defeat to bitter rivals Liverpool.
What did Raiola say about Pogba and Juventus
Raiola was his usual cryptic self when asked about the potential of Pogba returning to Juventus next summer.
“Dreaming is free, I don’t forbid anyone to dream, it’s good. Then let’s see if they come true. December is the month for dreaming with Christmas and the holidays, it’s still too early, let’s see what happens," Raiola said.
“We don’t know why, but when we talk about Pogba in England, even the dead wake up. Some former Manchester United players, if they don’t talk about Pogba and me, they don’t talk about anything. So it’s better not to talk about it.”
Will Pogba leave Manchester United
There is no doubt Pogba can be a frustrating figure.
Blessed with bags of talent, he has the ability to change a game, but has also been accused of flattering to deceive.
He enjoyed arguably his best footballing days in the black and white of Juventus and he may look to rekindle that relationship.
But Juventus have had their own struggles this season, while Pogba himself has previously suggested it is Real Madrid, not Juventus, that will be his next club.
The Frenchman said it was a dream of his to don the famous white kit of the Spanish giants.
