Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has revealed Paul Pogba has recovered from injury and is in contention to play.
The midfielder has made just 10 appearances since joining the Bianconeri as a free agent in the summer of 2022 from Manchester United.
A knee problem forced him to go under the knife, which caused him to miss the entire pre-season in the United States. Although Pogba crossed the Atlantic with the group, he focused on a tailor-made fitness program and refrained from training with the group.
However, Allegri confirmed that Pogba had reached match-level fitness and had undergone grueling training sessions as part of his preparations for his return to the pitch.
” Pogba is better. He had a good week and reacted very well on Wednesday after a very intense training session. It is available tomorrow and could be used”he told reporters.
Allegri was also pressed to comment on Romelu Lukaku’s potential transfer to AS Roma and its impact on the title race. But the manager refrained from commenting and said: “I don’t know if he will go to Roma, I only know that we have five strikers that I’m very happy with. I can’t be a judge of what other teams are doing. When the deal is done, we will have more clarity.”
