Manchester United have confirmed the imminent departure of Paul Pogba.
Pogba, 29, is out of contract on June 30 and will leave United exactly 10 years on from the previous time he left the club by running down his contract.
As the Manchester Evening News reported three weeks ago, Pogba is expected to rejoin Juventus, whom he joined from United in 2012.

Pogba re-signed for United for a world record £89million in 2016 and won the League Cup and Europa League in his first season, scoring in the latter final.
However, the rest of Pogba's United career was fraught and laden with incident. His late agent, Mino Raiola, offered Pogba to Manchester City in January 2018 and claimed the Frenchman's United career was "over" in 2020.
Pogba revelled in the sacking of Jose Mourinho in December 2018 on Twitter and publicly said it was "time for a challenge somewhere else" in July 2019.
Despite a fine start to the 2021-22 season, Pogba was dropped following the 4-2 defeat to Leicester City in October and he was sent off a week later in the 5-0 thrashing by Liverpool.
Pogba cupped his ear to United supporters who chanted "F--k off Pogba" on his final appearance at Old Trafford against Norwich in April. His last appearance for United was three days later against Liverpool at Anfield but came off injured after 10 minutes with United already 1-0 down.
Overall, Pogba played 233 times for United and scored 39 goals.
