Paul Pogba, who began his professional journey with Manchester United before becoming a global star at Juventus, is now set to reignite his career in the French top flight. This move marks his first appearance in Ligue 1, despite being a France international and World Cup winner.
The Frenchman has struggled with injuries and off-field controversies in recent years, including a doping ban that sidelined him for several months. However, his arrival in Monaco is seen as a fresh start, both for Pogba and the club.
AS Monaco, who are looking to bolster their squad ahead of the new season, view Pogba as a key addition to their midfield. Club officials believe his experience and leadership will be instrumental in their push for domestic and European success.
Pogba was warmly welcomed by fans and teammates as he signed his new contract and trained with the squad for the first time on Friday.
With the eyes of the football world now on Monaco, all attention turns to whether Pogba can rediscover the form that once made him one of the most valuable midfielders in the game.
