The largest sports newspaper in Italy has made an embarrassing blunder by confusing Paul Pogba with his brother.
It was announced on Wednesday afternoon that Pogba will leave Manchester United on June 30 later this month upon the expiration of his contract. Pogba is understood to be closing in on a free transfer to Juventus, for his second stint in Turin.
That means Pogba will sign for Juventus on a free transfer exactly 10 years after he last left Old Trafford for free to join the Old Lady. Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport included a story in today's edition about Pogba's imminent return to Juventus, but they were embarrassed when using a picture of Pogba's brother, Florentin Pogba, rather than the midfielder.
