Pogba set for Juventus medical this weekend as ex-Man United star closes in on move

The Frenchman became a free agent on July 1 as his contract with Manchester United came to an end.

He returned to Old Trafford in 2016 for a then world-record £89million fee, joining from the Serie A giants.

Pogba is now set to complete another U-Turn with Sky Sports reporting he travel to Turin for his medical on Saturday.

The report also claims it's believed the 29-year-old will sign a four-year contract with Juve.

Pogba's spell at Man United was an underwhelming one having won just the Europa League and League Cup - which both came during his debut season. He also won the World Cup with France as a Red Devils player.

Man United have no doubt lost one of their best players but talkSPORT's Mark Goldbridge believes Pogba parting ways with the club is the 'right decision'.

However, Goldbridge believes there's blame on both signs for the transfer not having the desired effect.

"I think it's the right decision," Goldbridge said. "So many things divide United fans and Paul Pogba's a big one, we saw him being sworn at and booed in his last appearance for United.

"I think United have got to take a big responsibility, we've let him go for free now, twice, £89million and he goes for free.

"I do hope Pogba's career goes better than it has done, but it's definitely time to part ways.

"There's been mistakes on both sides, the biggest mistake is this should have happened two or three years ago, you look what you've got out of Pogba the last two years and it's very little.

"So I am glad it's over, but I'm not a United fan who has bad feelings towards Pogba as I think there's blame on both sides.

"He made it very very clear he didn't want to be at Manchester United and you look at it on the part of the player.

"It started before a game against Manchester City a few years ago when Pep Guardiola said he'd been offered Pogba, Manchester United should've been proactive about this instead of just saying 'you're staying' and losing him for free.

"There's player power issues at United but it's not like he didn't make it clear he wanted to leave, a big club would've hit that head on and said 'right, he doesn't want to be here, it's not working, let's move him on'."
