Juventus Eyes Will Keane as Pogba Recommends Former Teammate
Manchester United striker Will Keane, currently on loan at Queens Park Rangers, could be on his way to Serie A side Juventus as his contract with the Red Devils nears its end.
According to the Daily Mail, the 21-year-old forward has attracted the interest of Juventus thanks in part to a recommendation from former teammate and friend Paul Pogba. The pair developed a close relationship during their time in Manchester United’s youth academy, and Pogba is reportedly keen to see Keane join him in Turin.
Keane, once considered one of the most promising attacking prospects at Old Trafford, has endured a career disrupted by injuries and limited opportunities at senior level. With no contract extension currently on the table at United, the player is expected to explore his options as a free agent this summer.
Pogba, now a key figure in Juventus’ midfield and one of Europe’s most sought-after talents, is believed to have spoken positively about Keane’s potential to Juve officials. The Italian champions, known for their strategic recruitment of young talent, could present an attractive opportunity for Keane to revive his career in a new environment.
While no official offer has been made, Juventus are expected to make contact with the player’s representatives in the coming weeks as they evaluate their attacking options for the next season.
Keane’s future now hangs in the balance, with the prospect of reuniting with Pogba in Italy offering both familiarity and a fresh start.
