Paul Pogba sidelined by AS Monaco
Nothing seems to be going right for Paul Pogba at AS Monaco. After returning to the pitch following a lengthy suspension for doping, the French midfielder has been plagued by injuries. In response, the club has made a decisive move: Pogba has not been included in the Champions League squad, according to RMC Sport.
Arriving last summer in an attempt to revive his career, the 2018 World Cup winner has barely featured. Suspended for 18 months, he then faced a series of physical setbacks that delayed his comeback. He managed just three Ligue 1 appearances, totaling only 30 minutes, before being sidelined once more by injury.
At Monaco, there's an admission that the plan simply isn't working out. "We are looking for solutions," admitted general manager Thiago Scuro. But this exclusion from European competition signals the club's patience is wearing thin. Without a swift turnaround, Paul Pogba's future in the Principality now looks highly uncertain.
