Apparently keen to afford Paul Pogba, Olympique de Marseille was hampered by competition from Manchester City on the file. Finally, the Cityzens changed their minds.
Such competition could have seemed unfair. On the one hand, an Olympique de Marseille which does not play any European competition. On the other, Manchester City, reigning Premier League champion and winner of the Champions League in 2023. Since European Football became aware of the reduction in Paul Pogba’s suspension, the Marseille club is partner. The rumors still come back today with increasing insistence. And it’s not with the latest information Football Insider on the possible withdrawal of the Skyblues from the race that the latter will stop.
OM holds the rope, City leaves
Before even considering signing for Olympique de Marseille, Paul Pogba is already unanimous among the club’s followers. If he holds the Paris region in his heart, the one nicknamed “La Pioche” will not be able to refuse to return to such a club, more than a year after his suspension for doping. However, competition in the file will be keen. Lately, Manchester City appeared to be a solid candidate, but according to the English sports media, it is however unlikely that Paul Pogba will wear the Cityzens jersey.
Pep Guardiola desperately wanted a midfielder to replace Rodri, who was injured and out until the end of the season. The Independent claimed that the Skyblues management had sounded out the former Juventus man. Ultimately, there will be no follow-up to this track. For now, it is indeed Olympique de Marseille which holds the rope. The Marseille club has never been in such a good position to win the 2018 world champion. In any case, it will take a little time to regain full possession of its physical means. As a reminder, he will only be able to make his official return to the field in March after his suspension for doping.
