Paul Pogba: Former Man United star's club future in limbo once more
Former Manchester United star Paul Pogba once again faces uncertainty over his playing career.
History
The French star came through Manchester United's academy but, after just seven matches for the senior team, left for Juventus in 2012.

He made an incredible return to the club in 2016 and spent six years at Manchester United before departing again in 2022 for Juventus.
Pogba was shockingly banned from football for four years after failing a drugs test, but on appeal, the punishment was reduced to 18 months and he signed for AS Monaco last summer.
Sadly, injury and fitness issues have continued to plague the player, and he only managed to make six appearances and play a paltry total of 115 minutes all season.
Monaco CEO statement
According to AS Monaco's CEO, Thiago Scuro, Pogba may not even see out the second year of his two-year deal at the club.

In comments carried by Get Football News France , Scuro commented on Pogba's future at the club.
He admitted, "it is a complicated topic because we have a lot of respect for Paul, for the person he is. Since he arrived, he has been very positive. It is also true that, last year, the project didn't work well because when we started with him in the summer, the expectations were very different to what happened."
The CEO continued, "I think that we have to be fair with him, follow his preparation every week, how he will progress physically and technically and then it will be the manager's decision."
New Monaco manager Filipe Luis is scheduled to talk to Pogba in the coming days over his future.

Scuro explained, "We have the summer to see what level we will see from Pogba […] He could [leave at the end of the summer]. With Paul, it has always been a very open and transparent relationship. If, at some point, the expectations of the player are different to the expectations of the club, we will have to speak to find a solution. The performance will give all the answers that we need. Maybe he will stay, maybe he will leave."
Monaco are scheduled to take on AS Saint-Priest in just eight days for their first pre-season game of the season.
