Paul Pogba, he believes in it as hard as iron

This summer, AS Monaco decided to rely on the experienced Paul Pogba. In the midst of his recovery after an 18-month suspension for doping, the French midfielder still raises some concern about his ability to regain his best level, or even just to return to competition.

Wednesday, on the sidelines of the great Monegasque success against FC Nantes (5-3) in Ligue 1, his coach SĂ©bastien Pocognoli suggested that the 2018 world champion could appear in the group for the reception of Paris FC on Saturday. If his presence has not yet been confirmed, former French international Ludovic Giuly remains particularly optimistic about the case of his compatriot.

“He wants to show everyone that he is not finished”

“I think it’s important for the group that he’s already in the locker room,” said the former Monaco attacking midfielder. Afterwards, he will bring his experience, his power”declared the 2000 French champion.

“It’s a gamble but we know he’s professional, he wants to show everyone that he’s not finished, that he still has things in stock. I wish him lots of happiness”continued Giuly.
