Mino Raiola has claimed that it will not be “impossible” to get Paul Pogba out of Manchester United this summer after revealing he has held talks with Juventus over a potential move. Pogba is hoping to finally quit Old Trafford this summer after being denied moves to Real Madrid and Barcelona in the previous two years. The France midfielder’s future is likely to have a significant impact on United’s rebuilding plans. United are open to selling Pogba if the right deal comes along but relations with Raiola remain strained and the agent’s public admission that he has had conversations about his client returning to Juventus is unlikely to improve matters. Real Madrid are also interested in Pogba. “I talk to Juventus and their vice-chairman Pavel Nedved about many things, including about Pogba and other players, as is only right for a big club,” Raiola told Italian media. “You need to get information, see what’s happening, put down a few hypotheses, dream a little. “Along with Juventus, there are other clubs in for Paul, but right now he is with Manchester United. “What I can say is that, just like Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul considers Italy to be his second home and he wouldn’t mind returning to Juventus, but we’ll talk about it after Euro 2020. “There’s nothing impossible in the transfer market, that has already been proved by Juve, PSG and Real Madrid. The achievement of impossible things is part of this business.” Juventus are interested in re-signing Pogba, four years after selling him to United for £89 million, and Real’s coach, Zinedine Zidane, has long coveted his compatriot, whom Raiola says wants to be competing for the biggest trophies. Pogba is not expected back from injury until next month and United - who would like the player’s future resolved before Euro 2020 - are at risk of missing out on Champions League qualification for a second successive season. “He never lost his smile, but clearly a great player doesn’t go to Manchester United only to not challenge for the Champions League or the Premier League title" Raiola added. “It would be bull for me not to admit Paul wants to stay at the highest level. “But Pogba will first and foremost try to give his best and then we’ll see at the end of the season if he ought to remain or not.”
