Paul Pogba Nearing Monaco Move

Football News

Reports indicate that midfielder Paul Pogba, aged 32, is expected to finalize his transfer to AS Monaco this Thursday. The French international is set to sign a two-year contract with the Principality club upon his arrival.

Pogba will join Monaco on a free transfer. His contract with Juventus was terminated in November 2024 following the early lifting of a portion of his ban. Originally handed a four-year suspension for a doping violation, this was reduced to 18 months upon appeal. The midfielder has reportedly been training independently in Miami as he awaited confirmation of his next club.

Initially, Pogba`s potential move to Monaco faced uncertainty. Reports suggested the deal could be `hijacked` by another interested party. Saudi Arabian club Al Ittihad was linked with the former Manchester United player, but Pogba reportedly preferred a return to French football (Ligue 1) over a transfer to Saudi Arabia.
