Former Juventus player Mohamed Sissoko claimed that Paul Pogba will return to the Bianconeri in the next season.

Paul Pogba’s future has been making headlines all over the world for several weeks now. Moreover, with all the reports of transfer deals, player-swaps and agent’s comments coming in, it is likely Pogba won’t stay at Manchester United much longer.

The speculation about the French midfielder’s next steps just keeps on growing. However, Pogba’s return to his former ‘Old Lady’ seems to be the most likely scenario. Juventus have reportedly been investigating new ways to secure the France international, also including a probable swap-deal involving outcast Paulo Dybala.

In addition, former Juventus midfielder Mohamed Sissoko commented on the possibility of the Frenchman’s return to Turin. The Mali international told TuttoJuve.com it just isn’t possible for Pogba to continue at Manchester United.

“For me, he will return to Juventus. He is not finding much space at Manchester United, his agent said a few weeks ago that he will no longer renew his contract. For the winter transfer market, I have big doubts, so this could be a summer deal for the Bianconeri.”

“Every time I see him [Ronaldo] I say ‘Mamma Mia’.”

Although Sissoko and Cristiano Ronaldo are the same age, the ex-Liverpool man officially announced his retirement at the beginning of 2020. Therefore, the Portuguese captain’s behavior on the pitch has impressed Momo Sissoko.

“Ronaldo always impresses me for how he behaves at his age. Every time I see him I say ‘mamma mia’. He makes the difference with the number 7 shirt. There is another player who is fantastic with the 77. I refer, clearly, to Gigi, who continues to excite us as when he was a kid. He is an example for the new generation, as are Bonucci and Chiellini. They are eternal.”
