Chiellini: 'Pogba welcome back at Juve'

Giorgio Chiellini says that Juventus "would gladly welcome" Paul Pogba back to the Allianz Arena, amid reports that the Frenchman could be on his way out of Man United.

Juventus captain Giorgio Chiellini has said that the door will always be open for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba to return to the Italian club.

United academy product Pogba won eight major honours, including four Serie A titles, during his four years at the Allianz Stadium.

The France international's form has repeatedly been called into question since returning to Old Trafford in August 2016, while reports of a rift between the superstar midfielder and manager Jose Mourinho refuse to go away.

Juve are among the clubs reportedly keeping on an eye on Pogba's situation at United, and Chiellini would be happy to see his former teammate return to Turin.

"Pogba? We'd gladly welcome him back," he is quoted as saying by The Mirror. "He is special. He was kissed by mother nature with talent, like LeBron James or [Usain] Bolt."

"He only has to become a bigger leader on the field, the moral abilities are there. But he is only 25 years old and there is too much responsibility for him."

Pogba has started 11 games for United in all competitions this term, including Saturday's showdown with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
