Paul Pogba, 23, has re-signed with the Red Devils for £89m on a 5-year deal. This makes him the most expensive player in the world, ahead of Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo.
He left the club to pursue more gametime due to Sir Alex Ferguson not believing he was good enough to be in the first-team.
He joined Juventus from United in 2012 in an £800k move where he stayed 4 years at the club in which he proved he was worthy amongst the top players of the world, whilst making Fergie look silly.
He made 187 appearances and scored 36 goals for the Bianconeri in all competitions. The midfielder has 38 caps to his name for France in which he scored on 6 occasions and was a member of the recent Euro 2016 squad that reached the final.
In recent weeks, the young frenchmen has been the center of attention around the media. As he’s been heavily linked with a move back to his former club.
Pogba did not make it easy for fans to figure out he was moving back to United as he featured in the Adidas ‘blah blah blah’ commercial where he said ‘don’t believe everything you read in the papers’ which made the move seem untrue.

However, the clubs official twitter released this image which made the move official, and put all the speculation to bed.
Many will be surprised that Pogba was not brought for £100m. But that doesn’t matter. United fans will be over the moon with the fact he’s now a United player.
Pogba has stated that it felt he ‘never left United’ and it was like he had been ‘on holiday in Juventus.’
Jose Mourinho has made it clear that United will indoubtfully pursue for the Premier League title and seem favourites in doing so since they last won it in 2013.
The signings of Eric Bailly, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and now Paul Pogba have set the tone for the upcoming season.
