The Catalan side’s admiration for Juventus starlet Paul Pogba is no secret but now *[Mundo Deportivo](https://talksport.com/football/reports-barcelona-representatives-italy-discuss-big-money-summer-move-paul-pogba)* claim the first steps towards the Frenchman signing for Barcelona are being made, with [representatives currently in Italy discussing the transfer.](https://talksport.com/football/reports-barcelona-representatives-italy-discuss-big-money-summer-move-paul-pogba)

The former Manchester United midfielder has excelled in Turin since leaving the Premier League and Barcelona are keen to complete a huge deal.
