After a challenging period marked by a lengthy ban and fitness issues that sidelined him for two years, the 32-year-old French midfielder is determined to revive his professional career with AS Monaco. Since making his debut in late November, he has been limited to just 30 minutes of play over three appearances. However, his teammates, including Brazilian defender Caio Henrique, remain optimistic about his potential impact on the team.
In a recent interview with The Athletic, Henrique shared insights from their training sessions, expressing awe at Pogba’s talent. He noted, “When we see him training and doing everything he does, we look at each other and think: ‘Damn!’” This shows the belief within the squad that Pogba still possesses extraordinary skills that can elevate their performance.
Henrique’s comments highlight the excitement surrounding Pogba’s integration into the team. The squad is reportedly eager for him to regain match fitness and showcase the brilliance that earned him the title of the world’s most expensive footballer. As Pogba works towards full recovery, both players and fans are looking forward to seeing him fully contribute to Monaco’s success in the remainder of the season. The anticipation surrounding his return adds a hopeful dynamic to the team’s aspirations as they navigate the challenges of the Ligue 1 campaign.
