The Bianconeri hope that making the Frenchman their new No.10 will let Barcelona and Manchester City know that the midfield ace will remain in Turin for years to come.
Earlier this summer, Sir Alex Ferguson advised Juventus to cash in on Paul Pogba. "I would sell him," the former Manchester United boss told Tuttosport. "It's true I let him go before but I would let him go."
The Bianconeri refused to listen to the Scot, no doubt reluctant to take the advice of a man who had allowed the most promising midfielder to leave Old Trafford for nothing.
