Paul Pogba sends "see you soon" message to Man Utd transfer target Paulo Dybala

Paul Pogba has sent a cryptic message to his former Juventus teammate Paulo Dybala with both players on the move this summer.

Pogba's agent Rafaela Pimenta has reportedly held fresh talks over a return to the Italian club, where he played alongside Dybala in the 2015-16 campaign. The Argentine forward is set to leave Turin at the end of the campaign as his contract expires.

United's interim boss Ralf Rangnick has all but confirmed that Pogba will leave Old Trafford at the end of the season for a new club. The France international's deal at Old Trafford expires on 30 June and he has been free to speak to rival clubs since 1 January. The Juventus CEO has commented on the club's 'gentlemen agreement' with United when speaking of talks with Pogba's representatives.

Dybala, 28, is out of contract at Juve at the end of the season and was unable to agree to new terms with the Bianconeri. The club are resigned to losing Dybala on a free transfer and attention will quickly turn to his next move amid reported interest from Manchester United and Arsenal.

Dybala has been the Turin club's top scorer this season with 15 goals and he has also chipped in with six assists, so it is little surprise that he has been linked with a high profile move to the Premier League. FootMercato has suggested that Dybala could move to Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer in the summer – a club to which Pogba has also been linked.

The two players may be reunited in Paris this summer or elsewhere, with Italian giants Inter another possible destination for both. Pogba has now sent a message directly to Dybala, which suggests the two may be seeing a lot more of each other next season.

The Frenchman went on his Instagram account to write: 'Hermano, you're a top player and top man! It's great to have you as a friend and to have shared moments with you at @juventus. Hope to see you soon! @paulodybala.'

Pogba has a tremendous CV, winning four Serie A titles, three domestic cups, the World Cup, Nations League and several other trophies during his career. But he's failed to impress since United re-signed him for a club-record fee in the summer of 2016, winning just two major honours and none since 2017.

Dybala joined Juventus from Palermo in the summer of 2015 and has bagged an impressive 115 goals across seven seasons, encompassing a total of 291 appearances.
