Man United lose another young ace as Pogba signs Juventus deal... and agent pockets £1.7m
Italian job: Pogba will join Juventus
Juventus have agreed a deal for Manchester United contract rebel Paul Pogba.
Sportsmail revealed last month that the Italians had outlined a four year contract for the 18-year-old that is expected to earn him a basic £20,000 a week.
His agent Mino Raiola, who represents Manchester City's Mario Balotelli, is also understood to have agreed a commission on the deal of around £1.7million.
The France Under 19 international was left out of United's reserve fixture with West Brom on Tuesday night and has not figured in the recent Premier League games despite travelling with the squad.
Manager Sir Alex Ferguson has grown frustrated with the protracted negotiations and United will receive training compensation to be determined by FIFA.
Ferguson said he knew nothing of the intentions of Pogba.
'I can't tell you anything about it because I do not know,' said Ferguson.
Pogba follows another major talent - Ravel Morrison - out of the exit door. He signed for West Ham in the transfer window after the champions lost patience with his indiscipline.
