Juventus are reportedly ready to step up their efforts to sign Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba, who is keen to leave Old Trafford this summer.

Juventus are reportedly ready to make an offer of £125m for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

The World Cup winner revealed over the weekend that he was ready to take on a new challenge away from Old Trafford, although United continue to insist that the 26-year-old is not for sale.

Real Madrid are considered to be the frontrunners for Pogba - who is said to be keen on moving to the Bernabeu - but the Spanish giants could face competition from Juventus.

According to Goal.com, the Serie A champions have decided that they want to secure a reunion with their former player during the summer transfer window.

The report adds that Juve are willing to pay £125m, which is almost £35m more than what they allegedly received for the player in 2016.

United, meanwhile, are said to be happy to hand Pogba a contract worth £500,000 per week in order to keep him in the North-West of England.
