Pavel Nedved, director of Juventus, claims Barcelona has interest in signing Paul Pogba.

"We know that Barca and other big clubs want him," Nedved said in an interview with El Mundo Deportivo newspaper. "But Pogba has a contract with us."

Barcelona cannot sign any players until 2016 due to a FIFA punishment.

Pogba is currently out until May with a hamstring injury.

"We lose a lot without him," Nedved said. "He is a footballer with an enormous quality but we cannot cry about it. We have a great roster that can overcome his loss."
