Man Utd, Chelsea and Man City's hopes of signing Juventus starlet Paul Pogba extinguished
MANCHESTER UNITED, Manchester City and Chelsea's slim hopes of signing Juventus starlet Paul Pogba look to have completely evaporated.
According to Italian sources, the midfield maestro will pen a new deal with the Italian giants early next week, ending any chance of a return to the Premier League.
Juventus appear to have succeeded in tying Pogba down with a four-year contract extension thought to be in the region of £60,000-a-week plus performance related bonuses.
Manager Massimiliano Allegri will be delighted to secure the long-term future of the club's most exciting prospect, and will contribute to the positive feeling around Turin.

Vidal is a Juventus player and I think there's no possibility that in January he'll go to Manchester
The other good news stems from Allegri's attitude towards Manchester United's pursuit of Arturo Vidal.
Allegri recently slammed suggestions Vidal would move to Old Trafford in January, and reiterated his desire to keep the Chilean at the club.
He told BBC World Focus: "The club has been very clear on Vidal.
"This season Vidal is a Juventus player and I think there's no possibility that in January he'll go to Manchester."
