Paul Pogba tested positive during an anti-doping control and the counter-analyses did not work in his favor. It could therefore be suspended for a long time. If this is the case, Juventus could end his contract and therefore recruit a replacement. From January…
The departure of Paul Pogba represents a significant saving in terms of salary, but at the same time poses a technical problem for the Juventus squad. Because in fact, if it is suspended for a long time, the club will have to find an alternative in January. Certainly, Massimiliano Allegri was used to doing without him because he was often injured, but reinforcement will have to arrive… According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is a player who is very popular. This is a credible lead as he has been relegated to a reserve role by new coach Ange Postecoglou, playing just 168 minutes in 8 matches this season and only starting once in the Coupe de la Ligue. His entourage is unhappy with this situation and is pushing for a transfer, with Juventus appearing to be a preferred destination. Intermediaries are therefore working on a possible negotiation. He is under contract with Tottenham until June 30, 2025 with a salary of around 3 million euros net per year, a manageable figure for Juventus, especially with the possible savings in the event of Paul Pogba’s departure. He is valued at around 30 million euros by Spurs, who are not considering a loan. In addition, with the CAN, they may not wish to part with it, to make up for the absence of other players.
If this avenue does not materialize, Juventus would explore other options. These include Kouadio Manu Koné (Borussia Moenchengladbach), Youssouf Fofana (Monaco) and Habib Diarra (Strasbourg). Or, an offensive track will be studied…And that’s where the return of the Domenico Berardi track comes. There could be another attempt at the winter market, with perhaps more convincing offers for the Sassuolo captain. Juventus are also keeping tabs on Georgiy Sudakov, a talented Ukrainian midfielder from 2002 from Shakhtar Donetsk, who has played in the Champions League.
