Juventus will reportedly contemplate ending their pursuit of Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba if it means securing a deal for Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt.

Juventus are reportedly prepared to withdraw their interest in Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba in order to sign Matthijs de Ligt and Adrien Rabiot.

Pogba, who revealed last weekend that he was keen to leave Old Trafford this summer, allegedly prefers a return to his former club over moving to Real Madrid.

However, according to Sky Italia, Juventus may instead show priority to securing deals for each of Ajax defender De Ligt and Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Rabiot.

The report claims that De Ligt is prepared to pick the Serie A champions over Barcelona and PSG, while Rabiot will become a free agent at the beginning of July.

Juventus perceive the scenario to provide them with more value, rather than having to shell out in excess of over £100m on Pogba.
