Pogba, who has underwhelmed at United since joining for a world-record fee in the summer of 2016, played with Dybala for a single season in which, according to the outlet, the two became close friends.

Per the paper, Mourinho "is anxious to bring in more firepower to ease the expectation on this season's leading scorer Romelu Lukaku and 2016-17's top gun Zlatan Ibrahimovic" and Dybala has jumped Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann as the apple of the Portuguese's eye for next season, despite suffering through a horrid campaign that's seen him benched on more than one occasion with the Turin giants.
