Pogba will now begin his second stint with the Serie A giants, making the move from Old Trafford for the second time in his career.

At the age of 19, Pogba opted to leave United for Juve, only to return four years later in a club-record deal worth £89million.

And his return to Old Trafford got off to a decent start, as he won the EFL Cup and Europa League in his first campaign under Jose Mourinho.

But those trophies in 2017 would be his only ones back in a United shirt. Pogba endured a difficult relationship with Mourinho and success still eluded him under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The France midfielder, however, played a pivotal role in his country’s World Cup-winning campaign in Russia in 2018.

Pogba is now back at Juventus, where he won the league title in each of his four seasons with the Italian side.

And having finally completed his move, signing a lucrative four-year contract, he told supporters that he is desperate to be in the mix for major silverware once again.

In a video posted on social media, he said: “As you can see, I’m back and I’m very happy – I can’t wait to start with you and win trophies again. We’ll be there on the pitch in the stadium, all together.”
