Very quickly, there was talk of his future since the midfielder born in 93 will officially be able to play again from March 2025. But the 2018 world champion will not return to the pitch in the Juventus jersey. Linked to the Old Lady until June 30, 2026, the former Manchester United player does not fit into the plans of Thiago Motta and his management. The idea is therefore to terminate his contract and part with his imposing salary. And all this is pretty well on track. According to our information, discussions are progressing in this direction between the two parties and Pogba's termination is almost effective. There are just a few details left to sort out. This will allow Pogba, but also clubs interested in his services, to discuss without problem. This could therefore be the case for Olympique de Marseille, which was cited as a potential base by Patrice Evra a few weeks ago on RMC Sport.

For now, he’s a Juventus player.” The door is therefore closed for the moment. But the situation could change once Pogboom is free.
