The transfer window will be open until later in the summer this year, however.

Unlike last year, the window will now close on September 1, giving teams well over a month-and-a-half after the end of the Euros to conclude any deals.

And that could be key to Juve’s bid to sign Pogba, especially considering Raiola’s comments about wanting to wait until after the competition is over.

Selling Pogba could help United fund moves for Jack Grealish, James Maddison, Jadon Sancho and Jude Bellingham, who have all been linked with the club.
