After the reduction of his suspension for doping, Paul Pogba agreed with Juventus Turin to terminate his contract. The Turin club is doing a good job financially, while the French midfielder is starting to set its conditions before choosing its future team.
Between Paul Pogba and Juventus Turin, it's well and truly over. Several sources reveal an agreement between the midfielder and his leaders. After the reduction of his suspension for doping, from 4 years to 18 months thanks to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the Frenchman began discussions with the Old Lady to terminate his contract which expires in 2026. The discussions have been going on for several weeks. But a waiting ground was apparently found this Friday.
Juve will save €30 million
A great deal for Juventus Turin on a financial level. The Turin club, which had recovered Paul Pogba free in 2022, had granted him an annual salary of 8 million euros, plus 2 million euros in bonus. According to estimates from La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italian big name will save 30 million euros by tearing up the contract of the French international. This separation also represents good news for the former Manchester United player.
Now free, Pioche will be able to join the club of his choice. There has been a lot of talk about a possible exile in Major League Soccer or an adventure at Olympique de Marseille. It's difficult to know where his thinking really stands. In any case, Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol indicates that Paul Pogba would see himself joining a team qualified for the Club World Cup which will be played from June 15 to July 13, 2025. Perhaps the opportunity for him to win a trophy shortly after his return to competition scheduled for next March.
