— Manchester United (@ManUtd) August 8, 2016Paul Pogba is a Manchester United player all over again. The 23-year-old midfielder returns after four years away, having left United for Juventus for £1.5m in 2012.
The France international has signed a five-year contract and the 105m Euros fee (£89m) will potentially increase through several add-on clauses.

Pogba, who signed a five-year deal, added: "This is the right club for me to achieve everything I hope to."
United will pay the Italian champions 105m euros for Pogba, plus 5m euros (£4.5m) in performance-related bonuses and other costs, including 5m euros if Pogba signs a new contract.
"I am delighted to rejoin United," said Pogba, who will wear the No 6 shirt. "It has always been a club with a special place in my heart and I am really looking forward to working with Jose Mourinho".
