EXCLUSIVE Juventus offer Paul Pogba contract extension: all the details
The French ace had had a difficult start to the season, but he’s been gradually improving picking up the baton left by Arturo Vidal and Andrea Pirlo.
He’s the leader of the bianconeri midfield and is becoming that king of box-to-box player that Massimiliano Allegri wanted to see at the beginning of the season.
Pogba, 23, is probably the most-wanted midfielder in Europe, but Juventus will not even listen to offers below € 100 million.
Juventus can match the player’s ambition of winning the Champions League and they have a gentleman agreement with both the player and his agent that he will stay at the J Stadium unless the club will receive an offer that can’t be refused (€ 100 million or more).
In the meantime, the Old Lady wants to keep her Toy Boy. A meeting with Mino Raiola is already on Giuseppe Marotta’s agenda. Juventus will offer Pogba a new deal expiring in 2020 and a salary in the region of € 6 million per season. The player’s wages, however, will rise each season until 2020, when Pogba will be earning€ 7.5 million a year.
Juventus want to keep Pogba at the J Stadium and build the team of the future around him, even if the player’s brother Florentin has recently told Butfootballclub.fr that after the EURO Paul will have time to think about a potential transfer.
Nothing you, but Massimiliano Allegri knows already that keeping Pogba in Turin would be Juventus’ best signing.
