History often repeats itself. Even more so when it comes o Paul Pogba. It looks like the Frenchman is keen to sign for Juventus – again. Pogba’s Manchester United contract will expire in just over six months – and it’s enough to make his future a prime topic in the world of football.Tuesday, 23.00: (1.60) Juventus (4.00) Zenit (6.50)The French international has kept his ties with the Italian club even after he’d re-signed for United in 2016. These days, contacts between the player are getting more frequent, according to La Gazzetta Dello Sport. Both sides are interested in rekindling their relationship next year, but there are more factors that could decide the midfielder’s future.Despite the reported interest from Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, Pogba told his agent Mino Raiola that Juventus would be his desired destination if he is to depart Manchester United. But the Italians cannot offer the kind of salary that Pogba is on at Old Trafford – at least not before they offload a few big earners who aren’t featuring in Massimiliano Allegri’s plans.Shopping in England: Antonio Rudiger and Paul Pogba are Los Blancos’ transfer targetsAaron Ramsey is still proving a significant stumbling block. The former Arsenal midfielder is not playing but is among the club’s top earners. At this point, Juventus can’t afford to recruit Pogba unless their budget is given a bit of breathing space by Ramsey’s departure. However, not many clubs are willing to offer the Welshman the kind of terms he’s got at Juventus Stadium.Tuesday, 23.00: (3.30) Atalanta (3.60) Man.Utd. (2.25)Pogba started his career at United but never got a real chance in the first team. Juventus pounced in 2012 and signed then-19-year-old Frenchmen on a free transfer. It was to prove one of the shrewdest deals in history as Pogba gave the black and whites four years of world-class displays and a hefty $115 million transfer fee when Manchester United decided to bring the dynamic midfielder back after all. Five years on – and Juventus could sign their beloved ‘Paul the Octopus’ again. And again he would arrive as a free agent.
