All the fun may be sucked out of this transfer story a long time ago, but Juventus seem hell-bent on jolting this twitching cadaver back to life.
Paul Pogba’s return to Manchester United in a reported record-breaking transfer has been imminent for a long, long time now.
Despite many publications having reported that the deal is all but done at several intervals during this summer window, including respectable outlets such as L’Equipe, this never-ending transfer saga has shown zero signs of ending. (Hopefully us saying that will make it finally happen, just to make us look stupid).
However, if you haven’t felt the shame of being fooled for the 700th time regarding this story, prepare to have your expectations unfairly raised yet again as the player has very recently been removed from the club’s official store.
While this may seem like an innocuous enough move, the timing is very interesting. Pogba was the posterboy for the new away kit on the site, but now that the deal is supposedly getting closer, it looks like they won’t be using him to flog shirts on their site.

That’s it, mark it down, he’s definitely 100% going now.
Phew… glad that’s finally over!
