Juventus claim that they have received “no contact” from Manchester United over the prospective transfer of Paul Pogba.
The France international is United’s primary transfer target this summer, following the signings of Eric Bailly, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
Pogba is thought to be open to the possibility of returning to Old Trafford, despite leaving the club in search of first-team football as an 18-year-old in 2012.
Marotta's comments contradict reports that United have already begun negotiations with the Serie A club and suggest that there is some way to go before any potential deal is completed.However, Beppe Marotta, Juventus’ director general, cooled speculation on Friday by telling Sportitalia: “There has been no contact.”
According to reports in the Spanish press, Pogba’s agent, Mino Raiola, wants his client’s future to be resolved by the end of July.
