The last time Paul Pogba set foot on the pitch, ... | OneFootball

Yes, you're getting older. 

This Saturday evening, on the pitch of Stade Rennais, Paul Pogba, called up for the first time in the AS Monaco squad since his arrival this summer on the Rock, could finally play a professional football match again! 

If he comes into play, he would be playing his first minutes since his suspension for doping, after testing positive for testosterone on August 10, 2023.

The last match played by the 2018 World Cup champion dates back to September 3, 2023, against Empoli, while he was playing for Juventus Turin.

More than two years of stoppage, then.

An eternity in the football world... and we're going to - in addition to depressing you - make you understand why!

The last time Paul Pogba set foot on a pitch...

- Lamine Yamal was only playing, on the same day by the way, his fifth professional match.

- Luis Enrique had still not managed a single PSG match in the Champions League.

- Milan Škriniar, Cher Ndour, and Manuel Ugarte were playing with PSG, on the OL pitch.

- Harry Kane had only scored three goals with Bayern Munich. He is now at 108.

- Antoine Griezmann was an undisputed starter for the French team.

- Karim Benzema had just signed in Saudi Arabia.

- Rafael Nadal was still active.

- Carlos Alcaraz had not yet won the Roland Garros tournament.

- Jannik Sinner was only 7th in the ATP world rankings.

- ChatGPT, which wasn't even a year old, was still being refined and could significantly struggle to, for example, randomly find quirky situations to feed... this article. Oops.

And you, in September 2023, what were you doing?
