Juventus will pay the release clause and obtain Higuain, but still up for discussion at Juventus is the future of Paul Pogba. The bianconeri are negotiating with Manchester United and are asking for more: at the moment the 110 million euros plus 10 in bonuses offered by the red devils are not enough. Negotiations for the Frenchman are therefore not tied to those for Il Pipita and Juventus isn’t letting loose on either front: Pogba does not finance Higuain’s signing.
It’s a remote possibility that Pogba stays in Turin, the bianconeri plan on raising funds through the sales of Lemina, Zaza and Pereyra. Their sales would cover the entire budget for this transfer window, which to this day also includes the signing of Pjanic, Pjaca and Benatia as well as the 30 million raised from Morata. If Pogba is to be sold it will be for the right price, on Juve’s conditions and without discounts. If he were to move to England, the Bianconeri could stop selling their players and start thinking of the right Pogba replacement.
