Manchester City will reportedly hold discussions with Juventus regarding the availability of their midfielder Paul Pogba.
The 21-year-old joined Juve on a free transfer from City's rivals Manchester United back in 2012 and since then he has become regarded as one of world football's best young talents.
His agent, Mino Raiola, recently revealed that the Italian champions "rejected two big offers this summer" for his client, a time when his former club United were thought to be interested in securing his return to Old Trafford.
However, City are now keen to steal a march on their neighbours and any other potential suitors where a move is concerned, with talks having already taken place between delegates from the Premier League champions and Raiola, according to Calciomercato.
The Italian outlet have further claimed that early negotiations between the two clubs will be held, most likely in Turin, this evening.
It is believed that Juve would demand around £55m for the France international, who has made 22 appearances for his country.
