Paul Pogba

Breakthrough at Juventus

Pogba joined Juventus from Manchester United and quickly became a key player in midfield. His technical ability and physical presence marked him as one of Europe's most promising young talents.

Serie A Dominance Established

Pogba helped Juventus reach the Champions League final and won multiple Serie A titles, establishing himself as one of the world's best midfielders. His market value soared as top clubs pursued his signature.

Record Transfer to Manchester United

Pogba returned to Manchester United for a world-record £89 million transfer fee, becoming the most expensive player in history at the time. The move elevated his commercial profile and global recognition significantly.

World Cup Champion with France

Pogba played a crucial role in France's World Cup victory in Russia, scoring in the final against Croatia. This achievement represented the peak of his career and cemented his status as a world-class midfielder.

Return to Juventus

Pogba rejoined Juventus on a free transfer after an inconsistent second spell at Manchester United. His reputation remained strong despite criticism about his form and commitment during his time in England.

Doping Ban Imposed

Pogba received a four-year ban for doping violations after testing positive for elevated testosterone levels. This scandal severely damaged his career and reputation, putting his future in football in serious jeopardy.

Move to AS Monaco

After his ban was reduced to 18 months, Pogba signed with Monaco to attempt a career revival. However, injuries and time away from the game have significantly diminished his impact and relevance.

Fading Star Seeking Redemption

Pogba continues at Monaco but struggles with fitness and form, a shadow of his former self. While still remembered for his World Cup triumph, his career has been marred by inconsistency, controversy, and unfulfilled potential.
