Paul Pogba is leaving Man Utd after six disappointing seasons
Wojciech Szczesny has told Paul Pogba to join his at Juventus
Pogba quit Old Trafford for the Serie A giants in 2012 and Juve keeper Szczesny believes his club team-mates will be over the moon to see the midfielder return to Turin.
Szczesny said: “I’d be delighted to see that happen. He did brilliantly in his previous time at Juventus so he would be a great addition to the squad.
“He is a player with good calibre and experience and he has good memories from Turin.”

But Poland stopper Szczesny is adamant the France World Cup winner still has the class to light up Europe despite a lack of consistency for the Red Devils.
When asked if Pogba is still a top level player, Szczesny added: “Oh yeah. Absolutely.
“Maybe over the last couple of years the consistency of his game and the injuries didn’t help at United.
“But when he is fit, he is still one of the best in the world.”

“That’s been a big problem for him over the last few years.
“It’s up to Aaron and the club. If he can get himself fit he will be a great addition to our team or any other club in Europe because he is a brilliant football player.”
