Juventus will only re-sign wantaway Manchester United star Paul Pogba for cut-price £50million with January transfer ruled out

The Manchester United star's time at Old Trafford is 'over', according to his agent Mino Raiola, who said earlier this month the Frenchman is 'unhappy' in Manchester.

And with just a year-and-a-half left on his contract, a departure for Pogba seems inevitable either in January or next summer.

Eurosport claim Juventus are willing to bring the midfielder back to Italy, and they would prefer to do a swap deal with United.

However, that seems unlikely so Juve may make a straight cash bid which would require the Red Devils to agree to sell Pogba for a fee of around £50million.

Pogba won four Serie A titles with Juve before returning to Old Trafford in a then world record £89m deal in 2016.

European football expert Kevin Hatchard has told talkSPORT a Juventus return for Pogba will NOT happen in the January transfer window.

He said: "I think they will probably wait until the summer.

"Mino Raiola, his agent, has alluded to that, he said 'when I was talking about his future, I'm talking about the end of the season'.

"It's very difficult to do that kind of deal in January, and I think that's right.

"I'd be very surprised if Juventus made that move mid-season. I think they'd have to get a fair few numbers in order by the end of the campaign and see exactly what they're working with.

"So it would be a big surprise to see him go mid-season."
