Juventus already making move for Paul Pogba replacement just weeks after return

Juventus are already moving to replace Paul Pogba after the Frenchman was hit by injury, with former Chelsea flop Saul Niguez emerging as an option.

Pogba signed a four-year deal with the Serie A giants after leaving Manchester United at the end of last season. He was supposed to be one of Juve's star signings of the summer, but has been hit by a huge setback less than a month after confirming his return.

Juve confirmed earlier this week that he had torn his meniscus ruling him out of their pre-season trip to Dallas. “Following the pain reported in his right knee, Paul Pogba was subjected to radiological investigations which revealed a lesion of the lateral meniscus. In the next few hours he will undergo a specialist orthopedic consultation," the club said.
