This Sunday, Didier Deschamps explained that Paul Pogba will still have to chain the matches before returning with the France team.

Unsurprisingly, Paul Pogba did not make the list of players summoned by Didier Deschamps for the matches of the French team against Ireland and Germany in September, in the same way as his former friend in the middle N’Golo Kante. Hampered by numerous injuries since 2019 and more particularly last season (10 matches and 161 minutes played with Juve), the 2018 world champion took his first steps with the Bianconeri this season, playing a rather encouraging 25 minutes with Bologna at the weekend. -end last.

Pogba still too fair

Unfortunately for him, it is not yet enough in the eyes of Didier Deschamps to select him again. Asked about the mid-30s this Sunday in Telefootthe coach of the Blues explained that Pogba will still need time before making his return to blue. “Paul has a more gradual recovery, it’s already very good that he was able to replay a good twenty minutes in the last match with Juventus. But a return there would be premature given the requirements and its situation today – even if it is better than a few months ago. He still needs time”he explained.
