Paul Pogba signs new Juventus contract

The 21-year-old has been consistently linked with a move away from Turin, with Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United said to be interested in the France midfielder.

However, Pogba looks to have put that speculation to bed by penning a new deal with the Old Lady running until 2019.

“I’ll give you a preview of the news: This morning we signed Pogba’s new contract, he’ll stay with Juventus until 2019," said Marotta.

The announcement of the two-year extension was greeted with applause by shareholders at a meeting.

The 21-year-old international had been linked with moves to Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, as well as a return to the Premier League, but agent Mino Raiola declared on Friday morning the former Manchester United man was happy to stay in Turin.
