Hit in the left thigh on Sunday during his team’s victory at Empoli (2-0), the 2018 world champion of Juventus Paul Pogba does not suffer from any muscle damage, the Piedmontese club announced on Monday via a press release. “The examinations carried out by Paul Pogba ruled out any muscle damage. They showed slight muscle overload in the right thigh. Pogba, not selected for France’s Euro 2024 qualifying matches against Ireland and Germany, will continue to receive treatment “to then return to training”.
Coming into play on Sunday evening during Juventus’ victory at Empoli (0-2), the French international was playing his second game in a row in the league and seemed – finally – to put away his long list of injuries. Launched by Massimiliano Allegri on the hour mark, in place of Fabio Miretti, the Frenchman, who had not been called up by coach Didier Deschamps for the September international window, seemed to be gaining momentum until he feels a little physical discomfort at the end of the match. “Pogba touched his thigh at the end, he had a little discomfort, announced the Italian coach after the meeting. It’s really a pity. But let’s assess how it will be tomorrow. He came in well, he played quality minutes. »
Paul Pogba has spent more time in the infirmary than on the pitch (only 161 minutes played in the 2022-2023 fiscal year) since returning to Juve last season due to multiple injuries. On social networks the midfielder was very enigmatic. He had published this Monday noon photos of him facing Empoli where he appears all smiles. Snapshots accompanied by the phrase Fino alla fine (“Until the end”).
