Just 2 days ago, the Italian press reported that Paul Pogba rejected an offer from a tycoon in Saudi Arabia and was determined to stay at Juventus . The French midfielder wants to regain his previous form in the shirt of the “Old Lady of Turin”. Pogba returned to Juventus starting last season but could hardly play due to injury.

Many people welcomed Pogba’s will after learning this information. However, the story has changed 180 degrees. According to reporter Tribaud Vezirian, the French midfielder was present in Saudi Arabia and visited the headquarters of Al Ittihad Club. The source said Pogba changed his mind after learning the amount of money he could receive.

Accordingly, the French midfielder will receive 100 million euros if he agrees to sign a 3-year contract with Al Ittihad. This is a huge income for anyone, so it is understandable that Pogba is “smitten”. At the age of 30 and in unstable form, it is difficult for the French midfielder to repeat the “Most Expensive Player in the World” feat like 7 years ago.

As for Juventus, this team is not interested in keeping Pogba. They have already targeted Sergej Milinkovic Savic, a midfielder playing for Lazio, to fill the void left by the French midfielder. Juventus plans to spend about 25 million euros on this deal because Savic and Lazio’s contract is only valid for 1 year.

According to transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio who learned from Paul Pogba’s relatives, this player came to Saudi Arabia “for personal reasons and nothing to do with football”. Afterwards, a video of Pogba interviewing a fan in Saudi Arabia about moving here to play was revealed online:

“No, no, definitely not today, not tomorrow either. I don’t know if it’s Al Alhi or Al Ittihad. I can’t say anything at this time. Let’s all wait and see.”

By suddenly going to a place where there were transfer rumors about him and responding in such a 50/50 style, Pogba made it difficult for fans to trust this player’s loyalty to Juventus.
