Saturday, at 7 p.m., AS Monaco will travel to the pitch at Stade Rennais for the 13th day of Ligue 1. And everything suggests that Paul Pogba will be on the trip to Brittany.
All the lights finally seem to be green for the international tricolor. “There is one more session today, we will report on the status of the group after this session. Present in the group? If it goes well, it could be the case,” declared Sébastien Pocognoli at a press conference this Friday.
And the coach of the Rocher club continued: “We are all happy with the individual development of our players and Paul is obviously one of them. There are objectives that we set for ourselves, we are on the same line regarding that. Everyone has their own trajectory, we try to take it to the highest level so that the collective comes out a winner.”
Pogba, first steps in L1 imminent
The match at Roazhon Park could therefore be the place where the native of Lagny-sur-Marne will take his first steps in the French championship. “He has the qualities to adapt to what we want to put in place in the middle, he has not lost his outlook nor his technique”assures the 38-year-old Belgian technician.
“La Pioche” has not played any official match since September 3, 2023. It was a short appearance in the colors of Juventus Turin against Empoli. As for the last meeting where Pogba played a full 90 minutes, we have to go back to March 12, 2022, during a confrontation between Manchester United and Tottenham.
