The 22-year-old only signed a new five-year deal with the Italians champions last October in an attempt to fend off interest from leading clubs across Europe but it appears that a huge bid could tempt the Old Lady into doing business.

Raiola has told Italian publication La Stampa that should a good offer arrive for his client then he is likely to leave the Juventus Stadium in the summer, which would in turn allow the club to rebuild the squad with the money they receive.

“With Juventus we signed for five years, but we’re all gentlemen and if the right offer comes along for Pogba and for Juventus, then it will be done.” he said (via Mirror Online)

“The big challenge for Juventus will be to rebuild the team. Otherwise, in two years , we will be say that it was a mistake.” he added.

The French international, who is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury he picked up against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League second leg tie last month, is reportedly valued at £50m by Juve and is attracting the likes of both Manchester clubs, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain.
