Revealed! Juventus Wont Sign Paul Pogba If Cristiano Ronaldo Doesn’t Retire

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba continues to be linked with a move away from Old Trafford but the Frenchman may not be returning to Juventus anytime soon, at least not this year.

According to European football expert Gabriele Marcotti, that deal is not realistic at all.

The Italian sports journalist cannot see how Juventus would be able to afford Pogba’s wages unless Cristiano Ronaldo retires – something that appears very unlikely at this stage with the Portugal superstar still having two years remaining on his contract.

“Juventus have issues, I think midfield is not one of them,” Marcotti told ESPN FC.
“What they’re talking about is some complicated thing where Pjanic goes to Barcelona and then Pogba comes in.

“The fact of the matter is I think everything is on hold until they get a clear picture of finances and Pogba is happy at United, he would be happier at a United team that was competing for the title.

“But the way his wages are now, I don’t see Juventus making this work, unless Cristiano retires or something, which obviously would be bad for other reasons.

“By the way, I should clarify, the bit about Cristiano Ronaldo retiring, it’s purely hypothetical, I have no suggestion he will anytime soon.”
