The French midfield ace looks set to trade in Juventus for a return to Old Trafford - four years after walking out on a free transfer Former Manchester United defender Mikael Silvestre believes that Paul Pogba has “unfinished business” at Old Trafford. French international Pogba left the Red Devils on a free transfer in 2012, but four years later looks set to cost United in excess of £100million, if he elects to return after four years in Italy with Juventus. During that time the 23-year-old has won four Serie A titles and emerged as the biggest star in Italy, before helping France reach the final of Euro 2016.

The 34-year-old Ibrahimovic was replaced at the break, when Galatasaray led 2-1 through Sinan Gumus and Bruma. Wayne Rooney scored a second-half brace and Marouane Fellaini and Juan Mata were also on the scoresheet as United came on strong after half-...
