This is the big awaited: Paul Pogba. The midfielder, who has not played an official match since the summer of 2023, joined AS Monaco during the last summer transfer window in the hope of relaunching his career. While he was expected to make his return after the international break in October, the Frenchman relapsed, suffering a muscular injury in his right thigh, which once again delayed his comeback.
But now his new coach, SĂ©bastien Pocognoli, has given reassuring news about his player. According to the Belgian technician, it is ” possible “ that Paul Pogba appears in the Monegasque squad for the match of the 11th day of Ligue 1 against Paris FC, this Saturday. “It is possible that he will be reincorporated into the group”he said.
“It wouldn’t be illogical”
“Paul has one more training tomorrow (Thursday) and if he feels good, we could see him again and we would be in a process that we had set. It wouldn’t be illogical to see it.”explained Pocognoli this Wednesday to the press after Monaco’s victory against Nantes at La Beaujoire (5-3).
If he were to play against PFC, the “Pioche” would play again for the first time in an official match since September 3, 2023 (against Empoli, with Juventus). This match will also be an opportunity for ASM to secure a third consecutive victory and stay in contact with PSG, leader with only one point ahead.
