Paul Pogba to take pay cut at Juventus

Paul Pogba is edging closer to returning to Juventus this summer.

Manchester United confirmed that Pogba would be leaving the club later this month as his second stint as a Red comes to an end.

The Frenchman is expected to sign a three year deal with Serie A giants Juventus, who lost out on the Serie A title again this season, but it doesn’t sound like he is running away for the sake of a bigger and better deal.

Goal understands Juventus are willing to pay Pogba an annual salary of €7.5 million (£6.3m) and it would include a number of bonuses to try meet his demands, which is reportedly €11m per year.

That was always going to be a stumbling block for the midfielder after deciding to move on from United. At Old Trafford, it will be argued that Pogba could have got that money and more, but most fans are happy to see the back of him.

Pogba turned out to be a disappointing signing because he never reached any of the heights we expected. To not win the Premier League in his six years at the club shows we’ve underachieved, but United didn’t even compete in a title race during that period. Our best night in Europe came in the Europa League — winning it in 2017.

The report from Goal explains that even with the different in ideas for salary, there will undoubtedly be a romantic element for Pogba to return to Turin.

  1. Goodbye and good riddance Paulie. Don’t let the door slam you on your way out. For so long you’ve taken our club for a fool. No effort, no commitment, just happy to take your paycheck every week without giving anything back.
    Karma is a a bitch.!!!!!!

    1. Please don’t say that he did his best yes he didn’t achieved much but a major cause of the problem is not from him its from the entire club as well so please I urge to recant what you had written

  2. Really Pogba is a Scammer. He believes he is bigger than Man Utd as a whole. Allso he made the Club loss many match losing balls due to his lack of concentration. Finally he love to Fake injuries for himself. Pogba have seen better days and cannot improve again more than the way he played for Man Utd for 6 years. Any club dat buys him will regret ever signing him. United I Stand.
