It’s almost two months before Manchester United and Juventus clash in Group H of the Champions League, but the reencounters of this match are already being the subject of several stories in the European press.
As Cristiano Ronaldo has already faced the Red Devils when playing for Real Madrid, his return to Old Trafford isn’t making that much noise as it did the first time.
It’s Paul Pogba who’s in the spotlight this time, and the Italian media has already started to link his meeting with Juve as a reason to recall the transfer rumours.
Website Calcio Mercato claims the midfielder will face Juventus ‘as the most discontented player in Europe, looking at the top players’ the Old Lady have.
They make it clear that the Frenchman’s move to United hasn’t worked out as expected, and in the meantime, Juventus have built a pretty strong team which he would be happy to join in the near future.
Calcio Mercato has a go at Jose Mourinho. Twice.
First saying he could never get the best from Cristiano Ronaldo, who they believe improved a lot since the Portuguese boss left Real Madrid. And now the same is happening to Pogba.
To end the story, they say that Paul Pogba may return to Turin at the end of the season, but this time, not as an opponent.
