Pogba in Turin for Juve medical

http://www.football-italia.net/19530/pogba-turin-juve-medical

It is reported Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba is already in Turin to complete his transfer to Juventus.

Pogba is out of contract with the Old Trafford side after rejecting their offer of a renewal and has been linked with the Bianconeri for some time.

Tuttosport claims the 19-year-old is already in Turin today in order to undergo his medical and sign the paperwork.

However, it is by no means certain that he’ll be wearing the Juve jersey next season.

Antonio Conte wishes to evaluate the player in pre-season training before deciding whether to keep hold of him, send Pogba on loan or include him in a potential exchange deal.

He has been mentioned as a possible bargaining tool in Juventus’ attempts to sign Kwadwo Asamoah from Udinese.

Curiously, Asamoah is also a target for Manchester United, who reportedly had a €12m proposal turned down.

Going to need a picture of him in one of those vests to confirm

Honestly, what are those vests actually for? To keep those wires connected to his chest in place or something?

No i suggest we wither keep him or loan him out, not exchange for asamoah, he will become One of the best in a couple of years

To confirm the transfer, an initiation into the team.
Honestly, your guess seems reasonable to me

Finally !

Here are pics of him arriving for medical visits..

Spoiler:

BOOM

Leali was the last vest. After his pictures where he looked freaked out by the whole experience, Juve has stopped the honored mesh vest tradition.

I see no reason why they need wired mesh vests, maybe it is an initiation to welcome players into the club. Whatever the reason, new players from different countries are probably terrified at the prospect of wearing one for the cameras. And Marotta wonders why top strikers aren't coming

Theres the photo

No vest?
How can this be?

He has broken the tradition, this is bad luck.

I'm not really sure what to think
Is Pogba simply too cool to be seen wearing a mesh vest?
Did he wear the vest, but did not want a photograph to capture that discomfort?

Is the vest currently with one of Jovetic or RVP? As a sign of good faith
Marotta sends out the vest to Jovetic, Jovetic takes a picture and sends the picture and the vest back, then Beppe decides how to proceed?

I see! The vest was the reason we attracted players like Pirlo, Vidal etc despite being 7th place. The vest will bring us the star striker we've been looking for

The brotherhood of the traveling vest

Nice, I like it.

knew it was coming but i'm still happy to see some proof.

so where do you guys think he'll fit in.. surely he will be with the team this season and have a chance to fight for a spot. But where will he play? will he alternate with marchisio/vidal/asamoah and play along side pirlo, or be pirlo's back up?

last season we didnt play a game without pirlo, so im curious as to how closely our playing styles will be when he's not on the pitch.

from what ive seen of pogba, hes that type of player. not a super hard runner, but creative and good in front of the defense. obviously he's not pirlo but he's the closest thing we have.

also makes me think where marrone will fit in all of this

I hope he takes minutes that would go to Padoin
Takes the time that Giaccherini had at CM last season

There is plenty of games, he could be an important player

I mean, potentially;

Marchisio-Pirlo-Vidal
Asamoah-Pogba-Marrone

Not bad at all.
