World football governing body, FIFA has cleared Manchester United of any wrongdoing in the transfer of Paul Pogba from Juventus.
However, Juventus is not off the hook yet as the club is still being investigated for the £89.3million move.
Fifa had last month asked both clubs for clarification on all aspects of Pogba’s £89.3million move to Old Trafford last summer.
At the time, a Fifa spokesperson said that its Transfer Matching System “has been requesting information on this matter” but said no further comment was available on the matter.
It came after reports that the player’s agent, Mino Raiola, will earn more than £41million from the deal.
It is, however, understood that Raiola’s agreement with the Serie A side, could have breached third-party ownership rules. Third-party ownership is banned in England.
“We can confirm that disciplinary proceedings have been opened against Juventus FC. We cannot comment further as proceedings are ongoing. We can confirm that no disciplinary proceedings have been opened against Manchester United,” a FIFA spokesman said on Tuesday.
