Chelsea are brewing up a £50million move involving Juventus playmaker Paul Pogba in the upcoming transfer window, claims Italian sports news agency SportMediaSet.

The French international, who took a leap of faith in 2012 when he was still a reserve at Old Trafford, is a key figure in Turin in the current campaign, a creative force in the middle of the park, finding the right guys 15 times that led to goals, while also having a knack for finding the back of the net with 9 put-aways.
