Man United cleared over Pogba transfer; FIFA will investigate Juventus


Alejandro Moreno says the time has come for Paul Pogba to become a leader at Manchester United.
Manchester United have been cleared of any wrongdoing over Paul Pogba's transfer but disciplinary proceedings have been opened against Juventus, FIFA have confirmed.

World football's governing body announced in May they had asked United and Juventus for clarification on all aspects of Pogba's £89.3 million move to Old Trafford last summer.

It came after reports the Frenchman's agent, Mino Raiola, will earn more £41 million from the world record deal.

United insisted at the time they were relaxed about the investigation after supplying all the relevant documents when the transfer was completed in August.

FIFA have now confirmed they will face no further action.

However, disciplinary proceedings have been opened against Juventus. It is understood Raiola's agreement with the Serie A side could have breached third-party ownership rules.

If they are found guilty, the Italian champions, who also reached the Champions League final, could be hit with a punishment; possibilities range from a fine to a transfer ban.

A FIFA spokesman said: "We can confirm that disciplinary proceedings have been opened against Juventus FC. We cannot comment further as proceedings are ongoing. We can confirm that no disciplinary proceedings have been opened against Manchester United."

Pogba scored nine goals in 51 games last season after returning to Old Trafford from Juventus and led United to a Europa League and EFL Cup double. He had moved to Turin in 2012 after making just seven first-team appearances during his first spell at United.

it's not logical to rate a player with one game. Like other Benfica players, Sanches was overrated by media so much. in reality he was just a raw talent. especially defensively he is weak. not aggressive. if he can improve his weak points, he can be an amazing player.on the contrary Pogba was a finished product.

his assist was world class vs Serbie U21 btw.

also it's unlikely Bayern would put an option for him. actually l don't believe in Sanches rumours.

If we end up getting a ban, Marotta is as equally to blame as Raiola is. Lets not get ahead of ourselves here. We are the ones that encourage these shady deals with Raiola.

Mino has nothing to do with the FIFA investigation. It's all on our management, sadly. I hope we are cleared, but a transfer ban would be politically acceptable (the same for Bayern) to most. That's what worries me.
