Paul Pogba will reject offers from Real Madrid and Manchester United to stay put with Italian side Juventus this summer
Teammate Paulo Dybala claims the Frenchman will not be leaving Turin for new opportunities despite interest from clubs
PAUL POGBA will reject offers from Real Madrid and Manchester United to stay at Juventus this summer.
That’s according to teammate Paulo Dybala, who claims he has heard it from the horse’s mouth.
Pogba is believed to be at the centre of an £80million tug-of-war between Real and United, with Zinedine Zidane and Jose Mourinho desperate to add him to their respective squads.
Reports claim the Red Devils are edging the race for his signature, although agent Mino Raiola insists Real have already opened preliminary transfer talks.
But Mourinho is apparently confident Pogba can be his marquee signing at Old Trafford despite Premier League rivals Manchester City and Chelsea boasting ‘fascinating’ projects.
However, striker Dybala believes Pogba will not be leaving Turin in search of new opportunities.

Dybala claims he has spoken to the France international recently and is also confident Pogba can recapture his best form after a shaky start to Euro 2016.
The Argentine : “Pogba will remain here, I spoke with him and I believe he will stay. We didn’t talk about football but I believe that will be the case.
“I know him and he is relaxed. When people criticised him at Juve he showed his skills, pressure doesn’t get to him.
“We all have to wait for the right game to show our skills, and when someone like him doesn’t do well it’s a bit of a surprise.”
Dybala also revealed his delight at the arrival of Dani Alves from Barcelona, adding: “I’ve watched him play and I remember seeing him link up with Messi on the wing.
“He is a very technical player that will help us in defence and attack. I hope I can score from his crosses.”
