TRANSFER BLOW TO MAN UTD: PJANIC TO JUVENTUS

Pjanic

Manchester United is set to miss out on Pjanic.  Miralem Pjanic is about to sign for Juventus imminently.

Jose Mourinho is reported to be a fan of the Roma playmaker but the Portuguese appears set to be disappointed as Pjanic nears a €32 million switch to the Bianconeri.

The fee is short of his €38m release clause given Roma are unwilling to pay the player a 15 per cent cut of the fee, allowing Massimiliano Allegri's men to secure something of a bargain as they target Champions League victory next term.


The sale of Pjanic – also a reported target of Barcelona – could have knock-on consequences in the transfer market, given Roma are likely to hold firm on their refusal to sell Radja Nainggolan to Chelsea.
