Midfielder Paul Pogba is set to extend his stay in Juventus as the Italian prestigious soccer club will soon hold talks with his agent.
The 20-year-old Frenchman, who joined Juventus from Manchester United in a free transfer in the summer of 2012, is tied to the club until June 2016, Xinhua reported.
Juventus are ready to offer him a new contract with improved terms as he has made impressive progress after he came to Italy.
Pogba's after-tax annual salary is reported to be one million Euro, according to the Gazzetta dello Sport.
The 20-year-old's representative, Mino Raiola, will reportedly meet with officials towards the end of this month or at the start of November.
Pogba has played in all seven of Juventus' League games so far this season, scoring one goal in 605 minutes of action.
