I'm thinking its more on the lines of the Mkhitaryan deal. Though a deal in general has been agreed by all parties, it hasn't been officially signed yet. Dortmund announced it early but Juventus might not be in such a hurry. It's upto us to get the medical done and finally announce it.
Paul Pogba | Undergoing Medical | Helping out the Laundry Ladies
- Thread starter KM
- Start date
Agree with the rest of your post. But I think everything else has been decided and he IS coming to United. Let's leave Madrid out of this.
Bloody hell, I'm sure Ian Holloway just said 'Sir Alex Ferguson said Pogba walked around like he owned the place' and that 'Man Utd didn't pay that for Keane', despite him being the British transfer record at the time...? Sky Sports really is shite right now. They're comparing Lacazette's stats to Theo Walcott at the minute. 
Presumably they can't afford to go out on a limb quite like individual journo's such as Di Marzio can.
Andy Burton is pictured with Pogba in Vegas however, so likely he got decent info behind the flight schedule during his chat.
Has anyone mentioned that Juventus have updated their website?
They've removed the picture of Pogba wearing the away kit and replaced it with Pjanic.

I think if his holiday is till 6th August, I don't see anything concrete happening this week.
He will turn up in Europe next Monday (8th August).

In media parlance, "preparing to do <insert muppety thing here>" means that they don't really know what's going on but it's the most likely next development, and as they don't need any proof of said preparation they can print it with impunity.
They may as well compare my stats to Lacazette.Sky Sports really is shite right now. They're comparing Lacazette's stats to Theo Walcott at the minute.
It would be as relevant.
I'm with you on this. The only thing holding this deal up is the fact he's on holiday. Plus, there's going to be a huge promotional assault from the likes of Adidas and this is giving them time to put something together.
In the official Juventus Online Store Pogba is very much there on the front page in their blue kit.
He's still there on the right of the page.

Very concrete. Sounds pretty much done.
Exactly, no point obsessing over Pogba this week. If its meant to happen it will happen sometime next week. At this point he, his agent & Adidas are just milking the attention on social media.
Is it just me or is Pogba on the longest footballer holiday I've ever seen?
Does anyone know of anyone else who played the Euros that is still not back in training?

Prominent French and Portugese players are still on holiday since they went all the way to the final.
Evra was also with Pogba in Vegas. Schneiderlin is back with us, probably because he didn't kick a ball at the Euro.
Evra, Buffon, Ronaldo, Ozil, Sanchez, etc. (many who played in the Euro final are still on holiday)
Ronaldo is still on holiday.
I can't see him anywhere on that site.
Not on mine (mobile).
Looks like the one on the right for me. Left is the old one.
On the desktop website he is very much still there!
I know!
I mean, if I was about to be given a massive contract by a new employer I'd be quite happy to cut my holiday short!
have to say Juve's kits look pretty good (apart from the stripy shoulders-only one)
Yes I cannot see him on the mobile website either.
Do we have any picture of his blood test yet?
as was highlighted earlier
Pogba is still on the frontpage www.juvestore.com
However he has been removed from http://www.juvestore.com/it/kit-gara.html which is their actual kit page

Is Acquista Subito any good?
i very much doubt anything will happen until he returns from his holiday and if juve dont do transfers at the weekend then we will be looking at next Monday at the earliest
He's not on either for me, if you refresh your cache is he still there?
I bet Juventus have never had so many clicks on their store web site.
I don't think August 6 was the day he returns, I think that was supposed to be the day he was due back for training
Then again, nobody seems to know when his holiday ends. The Skysports article starts with "Pogba spent his last days on holiday in Las Vegas.." Then ends with "He is expected to fly to Miami"
why we wont get Verrati ? Buy him when he decides to quit PSG . I prefer Dybala than Griezman
"Look, Pogba was actually having a negative effect on our website traffic"
Well look, he's having a great holiday and that's the main thing.
What's Schweinsteiger's excuse?
Here is an excerpt of an article that will appear in a local newspaper on Wednesday. Ignore the content, but take note of the first letter of each sentence.
I will accept my Newbie-Muppet Award when Pogba signs.
Pokémon Go, the mobile game that is taking the world by storm, will be officially unveiled in South Africa in September this year.
Obsessive gamers clearly don't bother themselves with the word “officially”, since hundreds of thousands have already downloaded it via unofficial channels.
Governing bodies have braced themselves for the impact, which has already been felt across the world.
Besides the expected battery drain, gamers will also have to be mindful of malware and crime.
After last week’s article entitled “Tsunami to hit town”, several authorities have released warnings for gamers to consider.
“Close calls associated with playing Pokémon Go are already coming in from the US where the National Safety Council is urging gamers to consider safety over their scores – before a life is lost,” says Eugene Herbert, group managing director of MasterDrive.
Keen gamers might take it a step too far according to Herbert...

Here's right there. After several reloads and a hard reset of the cache, he's still there
This is peak muppetry
That's how I understood it, can't see him being away until the 6th personally, will be shocked if we let this drag on until the end of the week.
