Pogba back in a united shirt 
It is getting serious. The negotiation between Juventus and Manchester United for Paul Pogba has officially begun. It was a face-to-face meeting between the clubs today, and the first offer has been tabled. United's Executive Vice President Ed Woodward was present for United, as was Pogba's agent Mino Raiola. Representing Juventus: club executives Marotta and Paratici. 101 million euros was the first offer (higher fee than it cost for Real to buy Bale, so potentially already the biggest transfer fee ever).
It appears that Pogba is leaning towards agreeing to a move to England, thanks in part to the enormous salary (13 million euros net of taxes) offered to the player. Juventus seems to understand Pogba's motives, which could demonstrate the club's reasoning behind the serious consideration of United's offer, without actually accepting.
In the next few days, Juventus will likely be submitting a counter-offer of up to 120 million euros, plus bonuses tied to Pogba's future output and future contracts. Raiola's role in the deal could also be another aspect to consider between the clubs. At this point, it seems only to be a question of fees and prices. Juventus is digesting for the first time for real that Pogba could be leaving, and choosing Manchester United. But no question that this is a serious effort for United to land Paul Pogba.
Juventus counter offer?? Massive mistake there.From Di Marzio article:
This Hash guy is this years Omid Zamani (remember him from Vidal, had the Conte avi?).
On the one hand, we've been through this before and it all ended in disappointment. On the other, this feels a bit different.
I guess next thing is Bayern come in and steal him from us![]()

I think you need to Google the definition of a bigot.
Yep this Omid guy seems to have disappeared
Welcome home Paul.
it's like back in the newbs
Yeah I follow him, account is still open but he hasn't tweeted since muppet season last summer.
Donkey KongFrom Di Marzio article:
Groundpog day will turn into I'm gonna explode my pants day!
Is that another way of saying he'll be a United player in the next 2-3 days?I think this time next week he has been a United player for a few days.
I feel like we have been "opening talks in the coming days" for at lesst a month
Hopefully. Then even if he rejects, at least then United have over a month to re-strategise (sp) and get a new targetI think by Thursday we will get a full answer on this whether Pogba is joining us or not.
101M but want 120M PLUS add-ons, you're having a laugh, 120M is enough without add ons.
Would rather chase Messi if Juve want add ons.
