Man Utd midfielder must accept 50 per cent pay-cut for Juventus move

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba will need to accept a significant pay-cut to join Juventus this summer.

The Frenchman has been in a contract stand-off with the Red Devils. He could leave when his deal expires in June.

Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are front-runners to sign him, but the Bianconeri are also in the pursuit.

Pogba spent four seasons with the club between 2012 and 2016. The Turin giants are keen on re-signing him.

The World Cup winner is also open to a reunion, but a deal will depend on him accepting a significant salary cut.

The midfielder currently earns around £290,000-a-week. He must accept a 50 per cent pay-cut to join the club.

Meanwhile, United are already planning for the future as they are aware that Pogba won't change his contract stance.

They are looking at multiple midfielders. In recent weeks, they have been keeping tabs on Sporting's Joao Palhinha.

Palhinha could be available for a fee of around £30m.
