French teenager Eduardo Camavinga had become a subject of interest to several European giants and at 18-years-old, he is one of the most sought after youngsters in world football. The Rennes star is likely to depart to a much bigger club at the end of the season as he continues to impress.

Juventus are very interested in Camavinga as they try to bring in more young players to the squad. However, Camavinga's latest actions might not help the Bianconeri.

According to Calciomercato, Camavinga fired his agent and is now being represented by Jonathan Barnett of Stellar Group. Gareth Bale and Wojciech Szczesny are two of their most high-profile clients.

A move to Premier League is now more likely for Camavinga, Juventus remain hopeful as they maintain a good relationship with Wojciech Szczesny.

Ronaldo has less than two years left on his current deal and the report claims that talks over a new deal will commence very soon. Cristiano Ronaldo is already the highest paid player at the club and a new deal will reportedly see his annual wages being increased to €30 million.

It is further claimed that the club might have to sell Paulo Dybala in order to finance Ronaldo's new contract.

This summer will be Manchester United's last chance to cash in on Pogba and as such, they have decided to drop the asking price from €100 million to €50 million.

Real Madrid are also interested in signing Paul Pogba. Manchester United are now open to the idea of selling Pogba as he is no longer that important a part of their squad. He has not delivered on the initial promise and though there are flashes of quality, he has not been able to sustain over it over a reasonable period of time.
