I have made up my mind to join Man United by January but Only On ONE CONDITION”, Juventus Star Paul Pogba reveals the only condition that could make Him join Man United by January
Paul Pogba could join Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr
Paul Pogba is set to return to football in March next year and several clubs are vying to sign the former Manchester United midfielder, per TEAMtalk sources.
The Frenchman is currently a free agent after leaving Juventus following a turbulent spell that saw him handed a four-year suspension from the game for doping offences.
The ban was reduced to 18 months after an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Pogba will therefore be free to sign for a new club in March and is also eligible to join in first-team training from January.
The midfielder will have plenty of options. Clubs from Major League Soccer, namely Los Angeles FC, are interested in signing the ex-Man Utd man.
The Saudi Pro League is Pogba’s most likely destination, though. TEAMtalk sources say that Cristiano Ronaldo’s club, Al-Nassr, are considering sending a lucrative contract offer to Pogba in the near future.
Pogba could also be handed one last chance to play in Europe by Roberto de Zerbi at Marseille. We understand that De Zerbi is an admirer of Pogba, but the French side are still behind Al-Nassr and LA FC in the race as things stand. But it’s not impossible that Marseille could make an offer for him.

Pogba played alongside Ronaldo during the 2021-22 season for Man Utd and the pair had a close relationship at Old Trafford, which could play a role in the midfielder’s next move.
The Saudi Pro League are keen to attract more high-profile players and Pogba certainly fits into that category after playing for the likes of Man Utd, Juventus and also the France national team.
We understand that Al-Nassr are seriously considering submitting a contract offer to Pogba after being in contact with his agents recently. Pogba could join up with Ronaldo and other big names at Al-Nassr, including Aymeric Laporte and Sadio Mane.
In a recent interview with L’Equipe, Pogba said: “I’m just thinking about coming back and getting out of this situation. Of course, you never know what tomorrow will bring, so never say never.”
On his ban being reduced, Pogba added: “I was really happy.
“I hadn’t done anything, why would they give me four years? I’ll be able to go back to doing what I love the most. It’s like I’ve been given another chance.
“I’ve been given back something that had been taken away from me. It’s a new lease on life. March is tomorrow, it’ll come quickly. And it’s something I can’t wait to do.”
