Paul Pogba is reportedly eyeing a return to the Premier League, with Arsenal being considered a possible destination. After having his four-year doping suspension reduced to 18 months following an appeal, the former Manchester United midfielder is expected to resume training in January, making him eligible to play again by March.
Since rejoining Juventus in the summer of 2022, Pogba’s time at the club has been plagued by injuries and a doping suspension, limiting him to just 12 appearances.
Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli has suggested that the club is moving forward without Pogba, stating that the squad is “complete,” implying that Pogba may need to look for a new team to continue his career.
Despite Juventus’s firm stance, Pogba remains optimistic about his return, expressing his dedication to the club. He emphasized, “I am at Juventus under contract. I will see what they are thinking and the vision.
My vision is to show I am a footballer,” indicating his eagerness to prove himself once again on the field.
Meanwhile, former Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna has called on the Gunners to consider signing Pogba. Sagna believes the Premier League aligns well with Pogba’s style of play and suggests that Arsenal’s youthful and energetic squad would be a good fit for him. “He has experience; he loves to play with young players around him—that is when he is most efficient,” Sagna noted, referencing Pogba’s standout performance during the 2018 World Cup, when he played alongside familiar faces.
Sagna also sees this as a fresh opportunity for Pogba to regain his form after an extended absence from the game. He believes that a move to Arsenal could be mutually beneficial, helping both the player and the club.
As Pogba assesses his options, a return to the Premier League remains an exciting possibility, with Arsenal potentially well-positioned to take advantage of the situation.
