Barcelona Sporting Director to meet Juve for Pogba
The former AC Milan director, by the way, will make his Barcelona return only after meeting with Juventus over the transfer of Frenchman ace Paul Pogba.
The Catalans are reported to be on the 22 year old since at least one year. You might remember that last summer Ariedo Braida met with Juventus’ CEO Giusppe Marotta ahead of Barcelona’s presidential elections offering € 80 million for the former Manchester United’s services.
The 31 times Serie A winner rejected Barcelona’s bid and according to the Juventus’ CEO, Pogba’s future will be still linked with the Old Lady in the near future.
“ We rejected lot of offers for him last summer as Pogba represents an added value for the club. We may have overburden him with many responsibilities, but this will help him to become a true leader”, Marotta declared ahead of the scoreless draw between Inter and Juventus last Sunday.
Pogba joined Juventus in 2011 on a free transfer from Manchester United. He has already displayed in 140 Juventus’ games, netting 25 goals and registering 30 assists.
