Agent Mino Raiola is reportedly playing up the interest of Juventus in order to get Real Madrid to make a move for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.
The France international has admitted that he is interested in a move away from United after three seasons back at Old Trafford.
Pogba is due to report back for pre-season training next week, but Spanish outlet AS claims that Raiola is working hard behind the scenes to ensure that the 26-year-old gets his move to Madrid.
Juve's interest in their former player is said to be much lower than it seems, with Raiola using it to pressure Los Blancos into making an offer.
Madrid have already spent more than £300m on new recruits this summer, but a new midfielder is still wanted by Zinedine Zidane.
Tottenham Hotspur's Christian Eriksen is another rumoured target.
