Midfielder will join FC Barcelona
Juventus have agreed to sell Paul Pogba to FC Barcelona, according to reports.
The Frenchman has been strongly linked with a move away from Turin all summer, but he stayed put in Italy with the Serie A champions to the surprise of many.
It was then revealed that Pogba rejected a chance to join Chelsea after they had a mega-bid accepted by Juventus.
The 22-year-old admitted that he turned down a move to Stamford Bridge because he didn’t feel the need to move, and since then it’s been well documented that he wants a move to La Liga with Barca.
