JUVENTUS are determined to return Paul Pogba to Turin in a summer transfer from Manchester United, according to reports in Italy.
The Frenchman’s agent Mino Raiola continues to publicly fall out with the Premier League giants after stating his client’s “ambitions have not been met”.

Pogba is named as the object of their desire – shortly after agent Raiola claimed that all parties need to reassess at the end of the season.
He told Sky Sports News on Thursday: “Today he is not happy because he is not playing. He is recovering. Paul if he does not play he is not happy.
“But I saw him go back to Manchester United when people did not think he would go back. People tend to forget that.
“People tend to imagine that Manchester United was the only club that he could have signed for. He chose Manchester United.
“Everybody knows the ambition from both parts is not being met the last years. Let’s be honest, let’s talk about the elephant in the room.
“So we need to see in the summer if Paul is still in the plans of Manchester United and if Manchester United is still in the plans of Paul.”
Pogba has only played twice since the end of September for United, owing to a troublesome ankle issue that required surgery.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is intent on bringing in a fresh face to help his midfield this month with the Frenchman and Scott McTominay out.
Bruno Fernandes continues to be the player most linked with a transfer but a deal is yet to be agreed for the Sporting CP playmaker.
And Inter Milan have reportedly rebuffed a loan bid for Uruguayan ace Matias Vecino.
