Former Manchester United star Paul Pogba aspires to rejoin the French national team and contribute to their World Cup aspirations. Despite facing a recent ban and searching for a new club, Pogba remains determined to make a comeback to professional football and achieve further success.
Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has expressed his strong desire to return to the French national team and contribute to their World Cup victory. The 31-year-old player is currently seeking a professional club after being unsuccessful in securing a move during the recent winter transfer window. Pogba's ban from football, imposed due to a positive test for a prohibited substance, is set to expire next month.
Throughout his rehabilitation journey, he has consistently shared updates on his progress and hinted at a potential move to Major League Soccer (MLS), particularly to join Lionel Messi at Inter Miami, co-owned by former Manchester United star David Beckham.The initial four-year ban has been reduced, opening up avenues for Pogba's comeback to top-flight professional football. In recent weeks, there have been numerous speculations about his return to the field, including a reunion with his former Manchester United teammate Mason Greenwood. Greenwood, now playing in Ligue 1 for Marseille under Roberto De Zerbi, has been performing impressively in the French top division. Pogba will be featured as the cover star for Ball.LDN's winter 24/25 exclusive edition, and excerpts from his interviews with the magazine have been shared on Instagram. In his posts, Pogba stated, 'The French team are exciting and I'm a big fan of them already. I can't wait to see how they further develop and win a future World Cup - hopefully with me as a teammate.' The next World Cup, the pinnacle of international football, will be hosted across three countries: Canada, Mexico, and the United States in 2026. Pogba also delved into his fashion choices, describing them as a reflection of various aspects of his life, including his identity and experiences. 'The way I dress is a reflection of myself in every sense. It represents who I am, what I've been through, how I'm feeling... many things,' he explained. He further added, 'Winning the 2018 World Cup made me hungry for more and more. It made me want to win every medal and every trophy out there.'However, recent reports from Footmercato suggest that Marseille has reservations about signing Pogba. The report cites his limited playing time since September 2023 (less than 30 minutes) and financial concerns as potential factors. The impact on the dressing room environment is also mentioned as a point of consideration. Alternative destinations for Pogba in the short term have been suggested, including America (deadline: April 23), Brazil (window closes on February 28), or Turkey.
