How is it risky? I'd take 3 seasons of Pogba where he's performed so well that Madrid want him, over 3 years without him.
You're talking as if he was a ready made world class midfielder like Scholes at his pomp. First it's not sure he will peak in the next 3 years as he shows a lot of inconsistency still. Also, because Madrid could employ their usual tactics with Pogba running down his contract for example which will put the club in a difficult position to negotiate.

Party @ManUtd's assault on #Pogba. We talk about 100mln to #Juve and 15mln the player a year. "
The opening of the Man United onslaught for #Pogba. There is talk of 100m to #Juve and 15m annually to the player.
Edit: just to fix the translation.

Premium Media seems to be a multichannel broadcaster in Italy, similar to Sky. Albeit, I have no idea if it is a reliable source or not.

Lots of Italian people on Twitter are saying they are "sometimes reliable."

So could be good news.

There's no guarantee any player will peak. That doesn't mean you don't spend the money on them. Especially if you're in the financial position United is in, we can take risk. Ozil is inconsistent doesn't mean you wouldn't consider him world class when in form... Same with Pogba

Pogba will cost 2 Ozils. I'm very undecided about this transfer btw, not that I don't want him.

The Premium Sports journalist is one Claudio Raimondi if anyone knows who he is and whether he is reliable.

So we are back to does he want to be at Madrid and he'll leave in 3 years because some attention seeking real Madrid fan (who was on the outside of the car btw) taking a selfie says he does?

Is he the latest creation of a small Juventus English speaking forum and does his name translate into 'Teeny Willy' if you put it into google translate?

Feels like the same shite is being repeated over and over by both real and fake journos.

If he produces the goods and does want to go to Madrid in 3 years he'll cost a lot more than 100m.......
We may even break even with £45m of wages thrown in.
I think we'll get him

You're a Twitter machine. Good find - I appreciate the work you put in.

Man I hope there is some truth in tonight's rumours.

A few people I follow on Twitter were all saying last night they heard that something will happen today and we'd get news late in evening. I just thought it was the usual BS but maybe something is stirring.

Thanks mate. Not often you see something like this but yeah thanks again.

All the Italian media outlets now going with the Pogba sum.
