F
rench World Cup winning midfielder Paul Pogba has returned to Serie A side Juventus on a free transfer, the Italian giants announced on their website on Monday.
The 29-year-old enjoyed a highly successful first spell at Juventus (2012-16) before Manchester United swooped to sign him for a then record 105 million euros ($106 million).
"Paul is back in Turin," Juventus said on their website below a photo of a grinning Pogba in a Juventus shirt.
"He left as a boy and returns as a man and a champion.
"But there is one thing that has not changed -- the desire to write unforgettable pages of club history together once more.
"Pogba is back and we couldn't be happier."
Pogba underwent his medical over the weekend and has signed a four year deal which will earn him a reported eight million euros ($8.12 million) a season plus a potential two million euros in bonuses.
