Injured in the right knee last week in training with Juventus, Paul Pogba has decided to seek treatment rather than undergo an operation. The French international should be absent from the lawns for at least 5 weeks.
Paul Pogba’s return to Juventus this summer is not starting in the best of ways. Indeed, for his debut under the colors of Turin, the Frenchman seriously injured his meniscus, as the Italian club explains: “After complaining of pain in his right knee, Paul Pogba underwent radiological examinations which revealed a lesion in the lateral meniscus. In the next few hours, he will undergo a specialized orthopedic consultation. Therefore, in order to continue his treatment, he does not participate in the trip to Dallas.»
Recently, the Italian press announced that Juventus was pressuring the former Manchester United player to undergo surgery in order to recover as best as possible from his injury. But this option would have caused the French midfielder to miss the 2022 World Cup. Finally, Paul Pogba decided to seek treatment rather than pass on the billiards. He is going through “conservative therapy for five weeks”, revealed a member of the Old Lady to AFP on Tuesday evening.
This consists for Tuttosport in a gradual re-athleticization, that is to say three weeks in the gym and swimming pool, then back on the pitch for two weeks of special work before rejoining the group. The French therefore prioritized his participation in the Qatari World Cup. As a result, he will miss Juve’s first five matches in Serie A, and the Italian club’s first two days in the Champions League.
