Olympique Marseille president Pablo Longoria reiterated today that there are no “advanced negotiations” or “ongoing conversations” with Paul Pogba, who has been free since leaving Juventus. “More people talk to me about Paul than about our results – Longoria’s words -. He is an extraordinary player, an extraordinary person, and I shared time with him at Juventus.
I am happy that his sanction has been reduced, but at the moment there are no advanced discussions, no approaches. We will have an internal meeting this week to discuss our transfer objectives.” “When a world-class player is on the market, you have to analyze the situation – added Longoria -, but with Pogba there are no ongoing conversations and no discussions have been decisions. I’m not closing the door because it’s on the market. But these rumors are more speculation and dreams than reality. And I would like things to calm down a little.”
Pogba’s contract with Juventus was terminated at the end of November. The French midfielder had been suspended since September 2023 following a positive doping test for dehydroepiandrosterone (a steroid hormone). At the beginning of October, the Court of Arbitration for Sport had reduced the suspension from four years to 18 months and therefore now the 2018 mono champion can return to play.
