Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has reportedly decided to return to Juventus next summer as opposed to joining Real Madrid.
The Frenchman is expected to leave Old Trafford next summer after claiming in June that he wanted a "new challenge".
Pogba enjoyed a positive spell in Turin between 2012 and 2016, winning four consecutive Serie A titles and reaching a Champions League final.
According to Tuttosport, the 26-year-old has decided to complete a move to Juventus instead of Madrid, who have for some time been considered favourites to sign him.
Real manager Zinedine Zidane was keen on pursuing Pogba over the previous transfer window, but United held firm on their £160m valuation of their prized asset.
Other reports have suggested that, despite interest from Los Blancos, Pogba has settled on the idea of returning to Italy.
