Juventus GM Marotta: Pogba deserves his pay-rise

Juventus GM Beppe Marotta says Paul Pogba deserves his pay-hike. The France international has extended his contract with Juve until June 2019, with it expected to increase his salary from €1.5m to as much as €4.5m.

"We deem the salary increase for Pogba appropriate to his value," Marotta has told a shareholders' meeting.

"I remind you that in the Bayern battleship which beat Roma, there are many players who earn more than €10m."
