Paul Pogba terminates Juventus contract ahead of doping ban return
Today at 02:20 PM
Paul Pogba and Juventus have mutually agreed to terminate his contract as the midfielder gears up for his long-awaited return from a doping ban.
Pogba has long been in talks with the Serie A giants to end his time at the club after a tumultuous second stint marred by injury and a doping ban.
The Frenchman, 31, is now preparing for his return to football, however, after his four-year ban for doping offences was reduced to 18 months following an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
The midfielder will officially depart Juventus at the end of this month. He is able to recommence training in January and can return to competitive football in March.
A brief statement from the Italian club said: ‘Juventus Football Club and Paul Pogba announce that they have reached a mutual agreement for the termination of their contract as of 30 November, 2024.
‘The club wishes Paul the very best for his professional future.’
