We can get €80m for Pogba, say Juventus

Juventus CEO Giuseppe Marotta
claims that several top European
clubs are willing to pay €80 million for
Paul Pogba .
The 21-year-old midfielder has been
repeatedly linked with a move away
from the Italian champions, despite the fact that he is under contract
until 2019.
Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea and Manchester City
are all said to be ready to launch record transfer raids for the France
international, and Marotta has admitted that the Turin giants could
cash in on him tomorrow if they so wished.
"There are so many buyers for Pogba," Marotta told Radio Deejay .
"There are teams ready to spend 70-80 million euro for him, but we
don't want to open negotiations because we want keep him to
continue to develop here."
Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola, claimed this week that while he could
2sell Pogba to PSG or Man City in a heartbeat", his client is currently
settled and happy to stay in Turin.
Meanwhile, Marotta also revealed that Juve were interested in Italy
international Marco Verratti prior to the 22-year-old's €12 million
move to Paris Saint-Germain in 2012.
"We had contacts in that summer he went to PSG, but we had just
taken Pogba [from Manchester United]," he explained.
"Then came the offer of [PSG director] Leonardo and we could not
match it."
