Sources told ESPN last month that Pogba agreed a move back to Juventus and he has now signed a four-year contract to reunite with manager Massimiliano Allegri.
The midfielder flew into Turin on Friday and was met with a hundreds of Juventus fans celebrating his return. He completed his medical at the club on Saturday.
Sources told ESPN in May that Pogba was keen on a return to Juventus after turning down interest from Premier League champions Manchester City.
At the start of June, United confirmed that he would leave when his contract expired, bringing an end to a difficult spell at Old Trafford. Pogba returned to United in 2016 for a then-world-record fee of £89.3 million from Juventus and won three trophies in his debut campaign. However, he fell out with then-United manager Jose Mourinho and struggled to find consistency under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and interim boss Ralf Rangnick.
Pogba endured an easy relationship with the United fans and they booed him in his final two appearances against Norwich City and Liverpool. He will be hopeful of helping Juventus regain the Serie A title for the first time since 2020.
