I'd imagine it's Pogba going to fund this.

They've got Pjanic already in - so is he his replacement?

Is Higuain+Pjanic better than Morata+Pogba?
 
If Juve have announced the signing of Benatia does that mean the Bonucci signing could be on?

Hi mate...no, Benatia seems to be a replacement for another CB on Juve's squad that was out of contract this summer..wouldnt be surprised if Juve have offered Bonucci a new/improved contract and he stays....dont think this one is happening...
 
According to Italian sources, Juventusmanagement have just rejected a new offer, amounting to €48/£40m, submitted by Manchester City for Italian international centre-back Leonardo Bonucci (29).

Meanwhile, both Antonio Conte, mentor of his (together with Giampiero Ventura, when they were together at AS Bari), and José Mourinho, are planning to try signing him, respectively for Chelsea and Manchester United. Bonucci, a core-player and a powerhouse for Bianconeri, is however planning to stay put, at least for the time being.
 
Juventus co-fixer and transfer strategist Patrici, along with Guiseppe "Beppe" Marotta, are preparing Juve fans for the imminent departures of both Paul Pogba and Leonardo Bonucci in a statement issued late yesterday.

As has been speculated, following the announcement by Gonzalo Higuain a few days ago that he wants to exit Napoli immediately, they are now ready to invoke the €94m release clause with either payment in full or far more likely cash plus players, likely to be Marco Sturaro, Robert Pereyra and Simone Zaza and/or Daniele Rugani. Negotiations on this are scheduled for Monday, 18th July in Naples with Di Launentiis.

The official confirmation that the club has signed defender Medhi Benatia from Bayern Munich yesterday paves the way for the for the sale of Bonucci to City and Paul Pogba to Manchester United. Miralem Pjanic already in place effectively replaced the Frenchman

The likely fee for Pogba is likely to be in the region of €110m (£96m) whilst City are going to have to have to spend around €67m (£53.5m) to land LB. There is no point in City pussyfooting around trying to get one of the top three defenders in world football on the cheap. I strongly believe that an offer which fully reflects his reputation and talent will prise him away. City though are going to have to cough up the full amount as they will also have to do to land Stones.
