Return to the field after two years! Official: 32-year-old Pogba joins Monaco for free and signs for 2 years
Official announcement:
Monaco Football Club is pleased to announce the joining of Paul Pogba, the French World Cup champion member who signed with the team for two years, and the contract period will last until June 30, 2027.
Pogba is 32 years old, a French midfielder. He has played for two giants, Juventus and Manchester United in his career. In the summer of 2016, Manchester United paid more than 100 million euros to Pogba to introduce him. In 2018, Pogba led the team to win the World Cup championship as the core of the French team's midfield.
【Pogba's suspension】
In Juventus' 3-0 Udinese game on August 20, 2023, Pogba came on the bench and underwent an anti-doping test after the game. The results showed that dehydroepiandrosterone was positive, a more powerful and modern androgen than testosterone. In the end, Pogba was sentenced to ban the game for four years.
Pogba then appealed and was confirmed to have taken banned drugs by mistake, and the ban period was shortened from 4 years to 18 months. But Juventus officially terminated his contract in November 2024, and on March 11 this year, Pogba's suspension period officially ended.
