Juventus are looking to absolutely rinse Manchester United
By Kian Long
Juventus and Manchester United have already met twice this season, both of them winning on the other’s soil. However, it could be Juventus who get the last laugh.
Juventus are looking to build a core for the future. They signed Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer but despite what we all want, he isn’t going to be around forever. That said, it’s no surprise to see them looking to the Premier League in order to strengthen.
They sold Paul Pogba to Manchester United for a record-breaking fee at the time. He was an academy graduate at United before joining the Turin club for cheap. Anyway, according to Metro, he could complete the career merry-go-round with a move back to Juventus.

The Old Lady will clearly welcome him with open arms. As they look to strengthen their midfield, Pogba will add an element of excitement to the mix. Massimiliano Allegri will give him the discipline he needs in order to excel and reach his true potential.
They’re not finished there.
However, Juve could throw a spanner into the works. According to The Times, they have completed a dossier on Marcus Rashford, another one of United’s immensely talented youngsters.
Rashford could be signed as a long-term replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, who will surely hang up his boots or leave Juve soon. While it’s too early to say whether or not he’s worthy of the role, Rashford is definitely a talented player.
He is a quick, energetic striker who likes to run in behind the defenders whenever he has the opportunity to do so. He has a composed head, so more often than not he will find the back of the net in one on one situations.
I think United would be more inclined to sell Pogba than they would Rashford. Rashford has never kicked up a fuss and they have no pressure of selling him, whereas they do with Pogba.
Do you think Juventus will sign Pogba and Rashford, just one of them or neither of them?
