French soccer star Paul Pogba has signed a massive €40 million (around US $44.2 million) deal with adidas, SportsPro Media reports.

Italian newspaper La Gazetta first broke the story that 22-year-old, who plays for the French national team and Juventus F.C. on the club level, has signed a ten-year contract with the Three Stripes. 

There's already evidence of Pogba's new deal on his Instagram, where he appears wearing adidas cleats and juggling a ball in a pair of Yeezy Boosts.

SportsPro Media reports that Pogba was previously without a shoe sponsor.
