Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba 'rejected £62m Chelsea move'

Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba reportedly rejected a £62m move to Chelsea on transfer deadline day.

The Old Lady agreed to sell the France international to the English champions, but the player turned the switch down, according to Gazetta dello Sport.

Pogba is said to have pledged his commitment to the rebuilding process at Juventus after holding discussions with his agent Mino Raiola.

The 22-year-old's decision to snub Chelsea is believed to have convinced the Blues to block John Obi Mikel's proposed transfer to Besiktas.

Pogba is nearing 100 league appearances for Juve, who have lost their first two league games of the new campaign.
