The great return of Paul Pogba?

Injured almost all last season and during the summer preparation, Paul Pogba is part of the Juve group for the 1st day of Serie A.

Paul Pogba has arguably just gone through the most difficult period of his career. Returning to Juventus Turin to relaunch his career after a roller coaster stint with Manchester United, the French international had to deal with several hard knocks, including injuries which left him with only 161 minutes of play, but also a dark extra-sporting affair with his brother Mathias.

But this 2023-2024 season could be that of the return of the 2018 world champion to the fore. Because if he has hardly played pre-season (40 minutes in a friendly this week), the 30-year-old is well in the group summoned by Massimiliano Allegri for the resumption of Serie A this Saturday. For the Bianconeri, the recovery will take place this Sunday with a trip to the lawn of Udinese.

7th in the Series last season due to the withdrawal of 10 points, Juve hopes to find the top 4 this season and thus return to the Champions League. Penalized by UEFA, it will also not play in the Europe Conference League this season.
