Agent Brambati: Pogba not injured at Juventus; it's been MADE UP

Former Torino defender and agent Massimo Brambati says Paul Pogba isn't injured at Juventus.

The summer signing from Manchester United is yet to play for Juve this season after collecting a knee injury in preseason.

Pogba has since recovered, but is yet to appear for Juve due to a muscle strain suffered in training.

However, Brambati told Radio TMW: "(Max) Allegri's response to Pogba given to the media makes sense. They tell me that the muscle injury never occurred, they made it up because he has a psychological injury.

"When he pushes he is so afraid of going over the threshold that he stops. He has a psychological block now and will continue not to play until he solves this problem. I confirm, I was told by someone, a source.

"Allegri says he doesn't know when he will play again and this made me suspicious. If it is muscular at a certain period you come back, instead if he says so it is because there is something else."
