Last October, when asked about the rumors associating him with Olympique de Marseille, Paul Pogba was keen to point out that he remained under contract with Juventus until June 2026. Two months later, the situation changed radically: the French midfielder, without a club since the beginning of December after an amicable termination with Juve, received a call from his compatriot Adrien Rabiot.
Scorer during OM’s victory against AS Saint-Étienne (0-2) this Monday in Ligue 1, the Marseille midfielder did not fail to take advantage of the moment to send a message to “La Pioche “. The 2022 world vice-champion, visibly frustrated at not having been able to play fully alongside Pogba in the Turin jersey, pleaded in favor of his arrival at the Canebière.
An ambitious project to seduce Pogba
“It’s a real subject, of course I would like to play with Paul. We had the opportunity to rub shoulders quickly at Juve, we didn’t really have the opportunity to play together because he had a lot of problems. I was very disappointed. Of course, we greatly invite him to come and play at OM,” he confided in the mixed zone.
Arriving last September in Marseille, Rabiot shows real confidence in the club’s project. “What we are putting in place is really very important. We see, there is a real dynamic, it is very professional, from the players to the coach through the management. There is really ambition so if he wants to come, it will be with great pleasure”he concluded.
