BARCELONA have reportedly agreed a fee for Juventus ace Paul Pogba.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, a lunch held between officials from the two clubs ended with an consensus over the transfer.
Barca will pay just shy of £57m for the France international, who is also wanted by Chelsea and Manchester City, with a further £7m in add-ons.
It is thought City were prepared to hand over £71m (€100m) for the former Manchester United player, who quit the Old Trafford club in 2012 and joined Juve as a free agent.
Chelsea, meanwhile, were willing to offload Oscar in a £35m plus player exchange deal, according to Sport.
But Juventus are understood to favour a transfer with Barca, in part because the deal will go through next summer when the Liga club's transfer embargo is lifted.
That gives Juve a year to benefit from Pogba's midfield presence as they seek to build on a fourth consecutive Serie A title and Champions League final berth last season.
As for Barca, presidential candidate Joan Laporta recently said he hoped Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola, could help bring the player to the Nou Camp.
"We feel that the key to a potential signing of Pogba is Mino Raiola, with whom we get on with very well," he said.
"We carried out negotiations with him for the deals involving Maxwell and Zlatan Ibrahimovic."
