Stunning Paul Pogba revelation: £79m Man City and Chelsea target ready to sign contract
PAUL POGBA is ready to sign a new contract at Juventus, according to stunning claims from his agent.
France star Paul Pogba could sign a new contract at Juventus
Pogba, 22, has had a number of elite European clubs chasing his signature for more than a year.
Juventus successfully staved off offers last summer after the midfielder helped the Serie A title holders reach the Champions League final.
Both Chelsea and Manchester City are thought to be in for the player this summer, alongside Barcelona, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich.
“He has a key role in the France squad. As for Juventus, I can only say that he wears the No 10 well despite some early season woes.
“Nothing has changed compared to a year ago. He has a great relationship with the club.
"Juve won’t accept anything less than €100million (£79m) for his sale and I agree with that, though he is more than happy to remain with the Bianconeri.
"We are even ready to sign a new contract.”
Paul Pogba - Spotlight On
Chelsea are reportedly ready to hand Antonio Conte a £150m transfer kitty if the Italian takes over the club this summer.
Conte, 46, will leave his role as Italy head coach after Euro 2016 and Express Sport understands he is Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich's first choice to be their new manager.
Pogba himself has also expressed a desire to one day play for Pep Guardiola, who will move to City this summer.
Guardiola will likely be handed a hefty budget to restructure the City squad after a disappointing season in the Premier League.
