The French midfielder Paul Pogba can now legally restart his career after serving an 18-month suspension from professional football. He plans to take his time before deciding on a new club, though, and is not in a rush to commit. Pogba is reportedly carefully considering his options and is not expected to decide on his next move before the current season ends.
Pogba has few immediate options if he wants to return to club football immediately because of the current transfer window constraints. The two main leagues he still has access to are the J1 League in Japan and Major League Soccer (MLS) in the United States. Pogba is prioritising a return to one of Europe’s top leagues, even though these possibilities are still available. His ultimate objective is to sign with a squad that participates in prestigious European competitions like the Europa League or the UEFA Champions League.
With a long-term goal of playing for France in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the 31-year-old midfielder is focused on reclaiming his spot in the French national squad. He thinks he will have the best chance to impress national team selectors and raise his prospects of getting called up for international duty again if he plays at the top level of European club football.
Pogba has trained hard to keep himself in good physical shape despite missing time from competitive contests. He collaborated diligently with a personal trainer during his ban to make sure he maintained his best physical condition. In order to keep his abilities and level of fitness from declining during his forced break from professional football, he also played in unofficial games while living in Miami with his family.
Numerous teams have already shown interest in signing Pogba; according to reports, Italian team Fiorentina and French team Marseille are among those closely monitoring his status. Additionally, unidentified La Liga clubs in Spain have enquired about his availability. Nevertheless, Pogba has already rejected bids from Saudi Arabian clubs and Serie A teams in Brazil in spite of these offers. His choice implies that, rather than seeking financial incentives in other areas, he is still dedicated to competing in a fiercely competitive European league.
Pogba is anticipated to carefully consider his options now that he is able to play again. In order to make the optimal selection for the next stage of his career, he is exercising patience rather than making a snap decision. His first focus is still finding a transfer that fits with his long-term goals and professional objectives, especially his desire to rejoin the French national squad in time for the upcoming World Cup.
