Juventus Chief Football Officer Fabio Paratici has discussed the Italian champions’ interest in Manchester United star Paul Pogba but admits the club will not be able to spend big this summer and has warned him not to expect a massive pay day.
The French midfielder is out of contract in the summer of 2021 – though United have the option to trigger a one-year extension – and has been stalling over renewal talks, with his agent, Mino Raiola, clashing with the club’s hierarchy and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Fearful of losing Pogba on the cheap and wary of their increasingly strained relationship, United are believed to be open to selling the World Cup winner if they receive a sum close to the £89m they paid four years ago. (Text courtesy Metro)
