Di Marzio right now on Sky: Juve planning for the return of Pogba

Raiola about to have Madrid and Juventus bidding for his man, that commission money, what a boss

@Frenzy

not happening

heard Juve want to include players to bring the price down and all of their players are numpties so no thank you

can't afford him straight up

but I will accept Bonucci, Dybala, Douglas Costa and 50M

Spinazzola is an automatic starter at United yes?

FOH with PES create-a-players

He is a FM Regen, world class potential

Juventus could include Paulo Dybala, Alex Sandro or Douglas Costa in any deal for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba. (Source: @FabrizioRomano)

@Frenzy pls respond

Paul Pogba is asking for unacceptable terms from Real Madrid and a transfer is complicated. Zinedine Zidane considers him a priority but a deal is very far away. (Source: L'Equipe)

New tax law in Italy enables Juve to be in a better position to pay €15m net to Pogba in wages.

As opposed to paying ~ €30m (gross) before, the new tax law sees a reduction with Juve having to pay €21m (gross), which is a wage committment of €15m net.

LOL Italy is basically bankrupt but they can allow multi-millionaire footballers to keep 71 % of their gross wages? LMAO

EU really needs to rebuild and leave all the mediterranean shithole countries out of it.

And football-related: LMAO if Raiola manages to ping-pong Pogba back and forth and get 100 million Euro commissions for it.

unbelievable really, that there's no regulation regarding conflict of interest in football agents

What's the conflict of interest?

That he's supposed to be working in the interest of the player but also has stakes in the transfer value of the player and is paid by the clubs who want to sign the player.

How is that not a conflict of interest?

Agents should be paid by the players, period. If they get money from anyone else, it's the very definition of conflict of interest.
Not sure what's not to get.

Raiola is an especially egregious case as he basically had third party ownership of Pogba from back before it was outlawed

Yep. Raiola is out there ruining careers based on his own greediness. Only looking after his money and not his players' best interest. He has a 3 month ban in Italy by the FIGC that got extended by FIFA to all the world, should just make it permanent.

Football itself is corrupt, next 2 Club World Cups in Qatar.

Football clubs have become a play toy of bored Sheichs and social media generation braindead clown footballers like Neymar, Mbappe, Pogba, Griezmann will be paid 50 million a month sooner or later, followed by even stupider Twitter generation fans.

I'd be surprised if I still watched football come 2022.

According to ABC.es, Pogba will soon submit a transfer request as he is determined to go to Madrid this summer.

What does a transfer request do exactly? I never quite understood...

it's how British people say they want out of a relationship

No need to submit a transfer request. He only has to tell them that he wants out and I'm pretty sure they'll drive him to the airport themselves.

for 150M you can have your very own Coutinho esque signing

I just don't see you spending that

125 mil + 25 in bonuses is very doable. We will do it because Zidane wants it, and Perez promised things to Zidane

Zidane will get the best out of Pogba.
