Preziosi: AC Milan scuppered Genoa chance of signing Pogba

Genoa president Enrico Preziosi has revealed they came close to signing Juventus star Paul Pogba.

Juve snapped up Pogba on a free transfer from Manchester United three years ago.

"Before he signed for Juventus, I met both him and Mino Raiola," Preziosi told Corriere della Sera.

"He was asking for a co-ownership with a big club, so I talked about this with Adriano Galliani but Milan didn't accept the conditions dictated by the agent."
