Practically two years after playing his last official match with Juventus, Paul Pogba gets closer to a little more return. Recruited this summer by AS Monaco, the midfielder does what is necessary to resume service. Today aged thirty-two, he set himself the ultimate goal of finding the French team which should compete in the 2026 World Cup if it leaves the qualifications. Some observers think that “the draw” will reach its goal.
Consultant for RMC, Pascal Dupraz said this Saturday that he believed in the possibility of seeing Paul Pogba being recalled by Didier Deschamps. “Pogba has been more than thirty-two. Let me explain: it's been two years since he did not play, so he was not tired on the grounds. (…) Let time have time. I'm waiting for Pogba at its best level in Monaco. I believe in it and I am sure he will be part of the selection of (Didier) Deschamps for the World Cup. »»
The former Saint-Etienne coach therefore believes in the return of the 2018 world champion for perhaps a last dance with the Blues at the World Cup jointly organized next summer by the United States, Canada and Mexico. The day before, Paul Pogba spoke of his arrival in Monaco and said that he was intended to take his time to be sure to return to the top when he deems good to resume.
Paul Pogba, far from the Blues for three and a half years
“There are steps. For me, it's to prepare well. I don't want to come to the field and not be me, not being Paul Pogba. »» Asked at the microphone of BeIN Sports, the former Manchester United did not have to mention the French team, but she is in a corner of her head.
Didier Deschamps has not called Paul Pogba for over three years, however. The last appearance of the midfielder with the Blues now dates back to March 29, 2022, during a friendly match won against South Africa (5-0) on the side of Lille. In conclusion, everything is possible even if it will not be simple.
