Monaco chief wary over possible Pogba contract termination | OneFootball

The general director of Monaco, Thiago Scuro, spoke about the club's current situation and Paul Pogba's condition, who is sidelined due to a calf muscle injury. The expectation upon his signing was that the Frenchman could return to playing as he did during his stints at Juventus and Manchester United.

Challenges and Uncertainties

Thiago Scuro commented on Pogba's difficulty in gaining match fitness. Since his return, the Frenchman has played in three matches and has not been able to positively influence the team.

“The recovery program we had for him did not work as we expected. Everyone continues to work to find solutions. We are disappointed that he has so much difficulty gaining minutes,” stated Scuro.

When asked about a possible contract termination at the end of the season, the director was cautious:

“There are many things in the contract that I cannot disclose. We have to adapt the plans to the circumstances.”

Financial Context

Monaco is in ninth place in the French Championship and, so far, is in 19th place in the Champions League. Scuro also highlighted the economic challenges faced by the club and French football:

“Except for Paris, everyone is in survival mode. We lost about 30 million euros in TV rights over the last two years. To comply with regulations, we need to sell a player before July.”
