Juventus ‘furious’ with Pogba and could terminate contract after £31m disaster
Juventus are considering ripping up Paul Pogba's contract after getting fed up with his fitness problems and selfishness.
The former Manchester United midfielder hasn't played a single minute for the Serie A giants since re-signing for them last summer after struggling with a knee problem since pre-season.
He was only supposed to miss a couple of months of action, but ended up extending his recovery time by refusing surgery for fear of missing the World Cup. However, after realising he wasn't going to be fit for the tournament, Pogba opted to get surgery, leaving club officials seething.

The Frenchman finally returned to first team action over the weekend, but was left on the bench as Juventus were beaten 2-0 by Monza.
But while Pogba prepares to make his long-awaiting second debut, Juventus are preparing to get rid of him having lost their patience with the player, who angered the club's fans by risking aggravating his knee injury by going skiing in December.
It's reported the Old Lady are looking to sell the 29-year-old to a less competitive league at the end of the season, but if that fails they could be tempted to cancel his deal altogether.
How much is Paul Pogba worth? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.
According to Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus are furious after investing over £31m to bring Pogba back to the club, with the player signing a deal worth over £7m-per-season plus bonuses across four years, only to see him put his own needs before the club's.
By contrast, Pogba's first spell at Juventus was rosy, with the midfielder helping fire the club to four consecutive Serie A titles, though his six-year stint at United was a bit of a mixed bag.
For every brilliant performance, Pogba would produce two or three underwhelming ones, leaving United supporters wanting, especially considering he was the world's most expensive player when he joined.
Pogba could well end up moving to America to play in the MLS if his deal with Juventus is scrapped.
