Juventus escape sanction over Paul Pogba transfer - Andrea Agnelli

Juventus president Andrea Agnelli has told the club's shareholders that they have been "completely acquitted" by FIFA of any malpractice in the transfer of Paul Pogba to Manchester United.

Manchester United were cleared in the summer of any wrongdoing over Pogba's transfer to Old Trafford, but FIFA confirmed it was still investigating the Bianconeri's role in the £89.3 million move in 2016.

Pogba's agent Mino Raiola reportedly earned over £41m from the then-world record deal, prompting FIFA to investigate the transfer. Agnelli said at a shareholders' meeting on Tuesday that no action will be taken against his club, however.

"FIFA's investigation into Pogba has concluded without any implication for Juventus, who have been completely acquitted," Mediaset reports him as saying.

Agnelli also announced an increase in revenue for 2016-17 of 20 percent on 2015-16, saying it is "something we need to be extremely proud about."

He added: "We've recorded a record profit of €42.6m. The focus for Juventus has always been on our football, but to develop the sporting side, what happens off the field is equally important.

"We're extremely proud of what the club have done -- never in history have a side won six Scudettos in a row -- and now we are looking for something beyond legendary."
