The end of the Paul Pogba soap opera? According to the latest information provided by The Gazzetta dello sport in today’s edition, the 2018 world champion has made his choice and the confirmation of his return to Juventus should not be long! At the end of the contract next June, the French international midfielder (91 caps, 11 goals) never wanted to extend with Manchester United, despite the various XXL proposals made by the Mancunian board.
Courted for several weeks by the Old Lady, the native of Lagny-sur-Marne is therefore preparing to make an incredible comeback, six years after leaving the Piedmont club for United against a huge check for 105 million euros . Author of nine assists and a small goal in 27 matches in all competitions this season, the Pioche, symbol of the gloomy season of the Red Devils, also remained in the sights of Paris Saint-Germain. However, the institutional context and the Mbappé case channeled, as we revealed to you, all the attention of the Parisian high circles. What give a certain advantage to the Vecchia Signora despite a better salary offered by PSG to the former Le Havre (around 12 million euros per year).
Agreement found between Paul Pogba and Juve!
According to the pink paper newspaper, Paul Pogba, also coveted by Manchester City, would therefore have been convinced by the Turin project but also by the presence of Massimiliano Allegri on the bench. Regarding the details of the new contract that awaits him in Turin, the Gazzetta evokes a three-year lease with a net gain of 7.5 million euros per year plus bonuses, estimated at 10 million euros. In addition, the Italian daily specifies that the official announcement should take place within a few days.
Injured in the calf against Liverpool during the correction inflicted by the Reds at Anfield (4-0) on April 19, “the deck” therefore most certainly played his last match with the Red Devils on this occasion. Already leaving in 2019, the 2018 world champion ultimately stayed at the club due to the lack of acceptable offers and the Covid-19 pandemic. But ten years after his free departure for Juventus in 2012, Pogba is well and truly on the verge of completing his second history with United. Under the Bianconeri colors between 2012 and 2016, Pogba took part in 178 games for 34 goals scored.
