Super agent Raiola coy over Pogba Man Utd commission: €27m?

Super agent Mino Raiola has dismissed criticism of the commission he earned last year from Paul Pogba's move from Juventus to Manchester United.

But while the agent maintained FIFA had not taken any further action, he was less forthcoming about the amount he received in commission.

“€27m? I'll just say that it's not an exact figure: maybe it's less, but maybe it's even more," he told Gazzetta dello Sport.

“FIFA certainly didn't open any investigation into Paul's transfer to United.

“Paul also acted correctly. When Marotta asked us to stay in 2015, he did so in the right way.

“It's very true that the year after, Pogba left with the satisfaction of all concerned.

“€8m commission for [Rodrigo] Ely? I don't think that's true."
