An expected return for Paul Pogba, but an uncertain future at Juventus
Paul Pogba had his suspension for doping initially set at four years reduced to 18 months by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). From next March, the 2018 world champion will be able to set foot on the football fields again. A decision which relieves not only the player, but also his many supporters. However, this sentence reduction does not guarantee a bright future within the Juventushis current club.
A blurry future at Juventus: Cristiano Giuntoli’s position
Despite the good news of his suspension being reduced, Paul Pogba’s future at Juventus remains uncertain. The sporting director of the Italian club, Cristiano Giuntolipreferred to remain cautious about the outcome of events. “ In the meantime we are waiting for the final decision of the CAS, then we will make a decision, he was a great player but he has been out of action for a long time “, he declared, according to comments relayed by DAZN.
These comments reflect a certain distance on the part of Juventus in the face of Pogba’s delicate situation. Uncertainty hovers around his return to the club, especially as his recurring injuries and his performances below expectations in recent seasons raise questions.
A new takeoff or an inevitable departure?
The question that arises is whether Pogba will be able to return to the level he was during his first years at Juventus, where he established himself as one of the best midfielders in the world. After a difficult period Manchester Unitedhis return to Turin in 2022 was supposed to mark a new chapter in his career, but injuries and this doping affair have slowed his momentum.
The Turin club could well consider the departure of its player if he fails to regain the form that made him an international star. Juventus, in the midst of rebuilding after several disappointing seasons, could opt for a restructuring of its squad and not include Pogba in its future plans.
