Turin: Midfielder Paul Pogba’s agent Mino Raiola hinted on Saturday that the French international may move away from Italian football giants Juventus next season.

Though Raiola added that the 22-year-old will not quit the Serie A side in January but insisted that there will be talks about his future in July.

“Paul is a lad who decides with his heart, and at the moment he’s focused on Juventus. I can categorically rule out a move in January,” Raiola was quoted as saying by goal.com.

“In the future we’ll see, we’ll talk at the end of July.”

The agent also revealed that the young forward has no plans with Juventus beyond the 2015-2016 season.

“Last summer he decided to stay another year at Juve, and he kept his word. We’re not preoccupied with thoughts of his future, we’re thinking about that,” Raiola said.

Raiola lauded the efforts of Pogba and said there have been a few offers made already which are still open.

“Pogba is no longer a surprise. He’s not a youngster just being discovered. A player with his talent is known to everybody,” he said.

“There have been offers for him, and they’re still there.”

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.

Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”

Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
