Manchester United agree Paul Pogba compensation

Manchester United have reportedly agreed an £800,000 compensation package with Juventus for the transfer of French youngster Paul Pogba.

According to Italian newspaper Tuttosport, the 19-year-old will sign a four-year contract with the Serie A champions after his contract at Old Trafford had expired.

Sir Alex Ferguson's attempts to persuade Pogba proved futile, but the Red Devils are entitled to compensation as he has been at the club for three years.

The France Under-19 international joined United's youth setup from Le Havre in 2009.
