Breaking news : Paul pogba reveals his next step amid Manchester United future to the fans .

 The final nail in the coffin ending 

Paul Pogba's career at Manchester 

United appears to have been hammered

 in this week after the Frenchman's

 revealed all is not well in an all-

tell interview in France.




The 29-year-old appeared to finally 


hand in his resignation at Manchester 


United after labelling their season as '


dead', while adding his last five years 


at Old Trafford have left him unfulfilled.



Pogba's comments have taken on greater 


significance given that he is due to 


become a free agent when his contract


 runs out on June 30.





Sportsmail understand while it is 


very unlikely Pogba and United will 


agree new terms, the Frenchman is 


set to wait until then before deciding 


on his next move.



Unsurprisingly for a World Cup winner - 


who revealed his 2018 winner's medal 


was among items stolen when his 


home was burgled last week -


 there are no shortage of suitors.



He has been heavily linked with 


Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid 


and Juventus ever since doubts over


 his long-term future at Old Trafford 


began being called into question.



But recent reports suggest two 


Premier League clubs - reportedly 


Newcastle and Aston Villa - have been 


in touch with his representatives 


over a summer move.



So what should Pogba do next with 


the current options available to him?


 And where does he fit at the clubs 


interested in him?



Let's start at Juventus, the club that 


sold the France midfielder for £89million


 back in 2016, and that even under Max


 Allegri have struggled to find an effective


 midfield combination.



Despite the summer arrival of Manuel 


Locatelli and January addition of Denis


 Zakaria, many believe the centre of the


 pitch remains a problem area in need 


of solutions given their profligacy 


and the lack of balance they offer the side.



But in purely numerical terms, Pogba 


may well fit straight back in at the 


Allianz Stadium.



Arthur and Adrien Rabiot's futures 


look to be away from Turin, with the former


 heavily linked with a move to Arsenal 


in January while the latter's contract


 expires next year.





In a more advanced role, a club 


chief has confirmed Paulo Dybala will


 leave on a free this summer after not


 being offered a new deal. There are 


therefore certainly enough potential 


departures for Pogba to be brought back.



And while the Frenchman's status at 


Old Trafford is arguably at an all-time 


nadir, his stock at Juventus remains 


high, having been key in Allegri's side


 who dominated Serie A and reached


 the Champions League final in 2015.



Allegri would not be drawn on whether 


Juventus would make a move, joking:


 'It's true that I had a great relationship 


with him, but he's angry with me 


because I always beat him at basketball!'



The only doubt remains is how well


 he would fit into a three-man midfield 


Allegri tends to employ in more important


 matches, and whether the Italian could


 turn Pogba back into the player he 


was in his first Juventus spell.



Real Madrid could also be in line for


 a midfield shake-up of their own 


given the nature of their ageing options 


in terms of 36-year-old Luka Modric 


and Toni Kroos, 32.





Casemiro also entered his thirties 


last month, and while Eduardo Camavinga 


and Federico Valverde provide younger


 options, it is still an area which needs 


rejuvenating, despite Carlo Ancelotti's


 apparent reluctance to blood some 


academy talent in the area.



However, it was former boss Zinedine 


Zidane who was believed to be a huge


 pull for Pogba and the fact the France


 legend is no longer at the Santiago 


Bernabeu will have lessened their


 chances somewhat.



Pogba will also turn 30 next year and 


given the age of midfielder they have 


been looking at - such as his 22-year


-old France team-mate Aurelien


 Tchouameni - his profile appears 


less appealing.



Depending on the futures of their elder 


midfield statesmen, Ancelotti could look


 to persist with a three-man system in 


the centre of the park, and Pogba's 


adaptability could also been called 


into question there.
