Juventus director Fabio Paratici was in Turkey last night to discuss the €15m Merih Demiral deal and meet with Paul Pogba.
According to La Stampa, Paratici was in the stands for Turkey’s 2-0 victory over France in a Euro 2020 qualifier last night, to watch both Demiral and Pogba.
The Bianconeri have practically agreed terms with Sassuolo for the 21-year-old Turkish defender at €15m plus bonuses, despite Atletico Madrid recently reportedly making the Neroverdi a €25m offer.
The intention had been to leave him at Sassuolo for another year to mature, but the fantastic performance against World Cup winners France may well have changed their minds.
Meanwhile, La Stampa also reports that Paratici was in Konya last night to watch over France international Pogba, who remains a possible transfer target this summer.
It’s suggested the pair might’ve had the opportunity to exchange a few words after the game.
If Pogba does leave Manchester United this summer, then he has offers on the table from Real Madrid and PSG too.

Pogba should move away from that lacklustre club. The man Is always criticized even though it's clear his levels above his team mates. He have a fair share of the blame though, only performed for about 2 months this season. Two months ? I swear this sub has something against pogba.

It's not Pogba drama. It's United drama. After he leaves, it will move onto Alexis, and then Martial and then whoever is the next highly paid player who is underperforming. So do you think pogba is underperforming for United ?

150m or Pogba? Who can we actually get though? Players don't want to come might as well keep out best players hostage.

Pogba is a very talented player on social media but certainly not on the field of play Juventus thinking of signing pogba back to the club might be a disaster to the team because of is Ego.
