Juve approves Pogba medical at United

FRANCE midfielder Paul Pogba’s transfer to Manchester United moved a step nearer yesterday as Juventus granted him permission to undergo a medical.

“Yes, Pogba has been authorized to undergo a medical in Manchester,” a club spokesman said. The 23-year-old — who left United for virtually nothing four years ago — was not with the Juventus squad in London for a friendly with West Ham United yesterday. Media reports said the French international had already arrived in Manchester. The fee for the transfer is expected to exceed 100 million pounds (US$130.4 million), a world record, for a player who was able to leave United for just 800,000 pounds in 2012. FA Cup holder United was facing champion Leicester City in the season-opening Community Shield at Wembley yesterday.
