Pogba extends Juventus contract

Paul Pogba  has extended his contract at  Juventus  until 2019, the club has confirmed, snubbing interest from Real Madrid  and  Paris Saint-Germain .

The France international has blossomed into one of the highest-rated central midfielders in Europe since he left Manchester United for Turin two years ago.

His performances under Antonio Conte - and now Massimiliano Allegri - had reportedly caught the eye of the likes of PSG and Madrid in the past, but Juve have moved to tie down the 21-year-old for a further three years.

Club CEO Giuseppe Marotta told shareholders at Friday's meeting: "This morning we agreed on the renewal of Paul Pogba, who will be tied to Juventus until 2019."
