Juventus star demands wages on par with Messi to join Barcelona

Juventus star Paul Pogba would be asking for king’s ransom from Barcelona, before agreeing to join the Catalan giants.

Negotiations between both Juventus and Barcelona were put on hold, and that despite Barcelona sporting director Ariedo Braida having traveled to Turin to discuss a deal in person.

Spanish media Cadena Ser now report that Pogba would have asked for a colossal €12 million net per season in wages, a request Barcelona would be unwilling to fulfill.

With the Catalan giants only awarding such important sums of money to the likes of Lionel Messi, the negotiations with Pogba would have come to a halt.
