Pogba was a Juventus player when he was handed a four-year ban for doping in September 2023. That ban, however, was reduced to an 18-month punishment, which he completed back in March. Since then, the 32-year-old has been training diligently to get back in top shape as he awaits a return to football next season. A stint at Monaco could likely materialise, with the Ligue 1 giants keeping in touch with Pogba over a potential move.

WHAT NEXT FOR POGBA?

It will be interesting to follow where Pogba ends up, with Monaco currently leading the race to acquire the midfielder's services. Saudi champions Al-Ittihad have also made contact, but a move to the Middle East appears unlikely. The ex-Man Utd and Juventus midfielder has already admitted that he dreams of making France's squad for the 2026 World Cup, so a move to a club that guarantees top-level football could make the most sense.
