Pogba is expected to sign a £60m deal with Manchester City, according to Mirror. This would amount to Pogba receiving approximately £200,000 per week.
Pogba scored eight goals for Juventus this season while adding another in UEFA Champions League matches.
Man City boss Manuel Pellegrini is confident that the Citizens have reached an agreement with the French star and have held off the pursuits of Barcelona and Real Madrid.
The Citizens are also strongly pursuing 20-year-old Liverpool midfielder Raheem Sterling, who is expected to command at least £50m.
Man City is coming off a second-place finish in the 2014-15 season, and they finished distantly behind Chelsea.
This was a pretty far fall from their championship 2013-14 season, but signing someone like Pogba and/or Sterling would make the Citizens a threat to dethrone Chelsea.
