French team, Paul Pogba's crazy promise to supporters

Everyone is eager to see Paul Pogba back on the pitch. But we will have to wait a few more months before seeing La Pioche again on the green rectangle. But first, the French international wanted to make a promise to the supporters of the French team this Sunday.

Paul Pogba promises to return to the French team

The end of the tunnel is getting closer for Paul Pogba. Initially suspended for four years, having tested positive for testosterone, La Pioche saw his sanction reduced to 18 months a few weeks ago. The return of the French international is therefore brought forward to March 2025. But well before that, the Juventus member will already be able to resume training from January. But it is not likely to be in Turin where the Old Lady no longer counts on Paul Pogba and even pushes him out. Discussions are already underway for a possible contract termination next winter. A situation which does not, however, reduce Paul Pogba's enthusiasm to return to the French team.

Despite his suspension, Paul Pogba did not stop training privately. And with the reduction of his sentence, the world champion has made a return to the selection an essential objective. This Sunday, the former Manchester United midfielder shared a photo of himself in the French team tunic with a special message to the Blues supporters. “I miss you a lot!! I'm getting ready to come back. I promise,” he wrote on his social networks. A message which confirms his ambitions with the selection that he has not had since March 2022. “Returning to the French team is a goal, of course, but you have to be realistic. Today I'm not playing. I have to earn my place,” Paul Pogba confided to L’Equipe in mid-October.
