Juventus are offering Manchester United the choice of one of three players: Medhi Benatia, Alex Sandro, or Mario Mandzukic in exchange for midfielder, Paul Pogba, according to Express Sports. The Italian giants are stepping up their attempts to re-sign Pogba. Juventus board wants to bring back the Frenchman to Turin when the transfer window opens in January.
But they are confident of getting their man in June in the face of competition from Spanish giants Barcelona who are also interested.
Juventus sporting director Fabio Paratici has been drawing up plans to get deal done.
Paratici is giving United the choice of either centre-half Benatia; left wing back Sandro or striker Mandzukic.
Manchester United were interested in all three players last summer and Paratici will tell them they can have any of them plus cash.
Pogba left Old Trafford for Turin at 19 and spent four seasons with the Serie A giants before returning to Manchester in 2016.
Pogba was asked about returning to Juventus after United’s 2-1 win in the Champions League on Wednesday, and he said, “Who knows? I’m with United now.
“There is so much talk about this, but am happy to be playing for Manchester United.
“It was wonderful coming back here, although it felt weird going into the ‘away’ locker room.
“I was so accustomed to the Juve one.
“The reaction of the fans really moved me, as I missed them and Italian football.
“It was great to be back in this stadium, where I started out and won big trophies.”
