Paul Pogba facing tough decision on Man Utd move, says Alessandro Del Piero
Saturday 9 July 2016 18:16, UK
Former Juventus captain Alessandro Del Piero admits Paul Pogba is facing a tough decision over whether to re-join Manchester United in a world record deal worth £100m.
Sky sources understand United chief executive Ed Woodward started negotiations with Juventus earlier this week over a deal to sign the midfielder.
Pogba, who is currently preparing for France's Euro 2016 final against Portugal on Sunday, left United in 2012 on a free transfer, but could return to Old Trafford to earn up to £300,000-a-week.
He is currently contracted to the Serie A champions until 2019 and Del Piero believes his former club will be desperate to keep the 23-year-old for at least one more season.
"Pogba is a great player, has great potential and has already shown that to everybody," Del Piero told Sky Sports News HQ.

"I don't know what's going to happen, there's a lot of talk and I think Juventus want to keep him for at least one more year.
"But definitely United are a huge club, it's also tough for him to decide what's best. As an Italian and a former Juventus player, I hope he stays for at least one more year."
