Juventus' Paul Pogba Is Vastly Underpaid in Serie A

Paul Pogba of Juventus is one of the world's most up-and-coming and sought-after talents.

Compared to us common folk, Pogba is very well-paid. But for a man who is likely to be dominating midfields for the next decade and has also been linked to cash-heavy sides like Chelsea, per Express' Anthony Chapman, his £23,000-per-week wages are pretty alarming. At least for a man with so much talent at his disposal. 

Italian publication La Gazzetta dello Sport (h/t Metro's Vaishali Bhardwaj) revealed the salaries of Serie A footballers, and Pogba's take stood out as a fairly shocking figure—especially considering the haul he could pull at the likes of a Manchester City or a Chelsea.  

Consider: he's making £77,000 less than the highest-paid player in Italy's top flight, Daniele De Rossi of Roma. He's making £38,000 less than past-his-prime Fernando Torres. 

Carlos Tevez is Juve's highest-paid player, bringing in £3.6 million per season.
