Juventus set to complete Pogba and Di Maria deals

Juventus are set to complete the free transfer signings of Paul Pogba and Angel Di Maria in the coming days.

The Bianconeri are closing in on the signings of two of the summer’s highest-profile free agents, with Pogba set to return to the club for a second spell after leaving Manchester United last month.

 

The France international spent four seasons with Juventus before leaving for United in a then-world record £89m deal in 2016, and won four consecutive Serie A titles with the Italian side.

He made 178 appearances during his first spell with the club, scoring 34 goals, and was named in the Serie A Team of the Season on three occasions.

Goal are reporting that the 29-year-old will head to Turin in the coming days to finalise his return, where he will be joined by Di Maria.

The Argentina international is available on a free transfer after leaving Paris Saint-Germain following a successful seven-year spell with the club, in which he won 18 honours.

The 34-year-old will hope for a regular role in the Juventus side after seeing his minutes reduced at PSG last season, with the winger set to pen a one-year deal in Turin.

Juventus will hope the duo can help the club challenge for the Serie A title once again next season, after consecutive fourth-placed finishes across the last two seasons.
