FOOTBALL fans are convinced Paul Pogba’s return to Juventus means one thing… a record move back to Manchester United.
The Red Devils forked out £89million to sign Pogba from Juve back in 2016 after letting him join the Italians for free four years earlier.
Now Pogba is set for a medical with Juventus on Saturday after agreeing to join the Serie A side for a second time.
Football fans though have been unable to resist poking fun at United for losing the Frenchman yet again.
The £89m paid to resign Pogba six years ago remains the club’s record fee, and rival supporters have joked it is inevitable the Red Devils will splash the cash to sign him again.
In response to the news Pogba had agreed to join Juve, one wrote on social media: “We will see him back at Man Utd in 2025 for £120m.”
Another added: “Then Utd will pay £200mil to buy him back.”
And a third joked: “How many years til he’s back at Utd?”
Pogba made 226 appearances in his second spell at Old Trafford, helping the club lift the Europa League and League Cup in 2017.
But he was one of ELEVEN players released by the Red Devils this summer as new manager Erik ten Hag targets a major rebuild.

Reports suggest Pogba will pen a four-year deal with a sizeable signing-on fee at Juventus.
Respected Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla claims he will earn a basic salary of around £150,000 a week.
The World Cup winner played 177 times for Juve during his first spell in Turin – winning Serie A in each of the four seasons he spent there.
