Midfielder Paul Pogba has officially become a free agent after reaching an agreement to terminate his contract with Juventus. He is training in Miami and could become Messi’s new teammate. Meanwhile, Neymar will buy back Santos.
Pogba has only been in the US recently, training at a training center in Miami, often going to Inter Miami to watch Messi and his teammates play in MLS (American professional soccer league) as well as the recent playoff matches. According to the US press, Pogba is in contact with Inter Miami to join this team from the beginning of 2025 after the suspension expires.
Pogba has just reached an agreement to end his contract with Juventus (Italy), which is valid until June 2026, in a friendly manner. From the beginning of 2025, this 31-year-old French player is allowed to join a new team and officially return to play from March.
Therefore, from this point on, Pogba is actively training to regain his fitness and form. After being banned from competition due to a doping penalty, he was banned for 3 years but was reduced to 18 months.
AS (Spain) reported: “Pogba’s ability to play in the US is very high. This player could choose Inter Miami to be a new teammate with Messi and Suarez (who are about to extend their contract for another year). Recently, Pogba has only trained in Miami and lived with his family there. It shows that he is seriously considering joining Inter Miami.”
Also according to AS : “Pogba once proposed to reduce his salary to only 500,000 USD/week to play for Juventus. But this club no longer includes him in the competition plan. If he agrees to go to Inter Miami with a significantly reduced salary, Pogba will certainly be accepted by the team’s leadership soon.
Furthermore, Inter Miami’s board of directors have recently been having trouble with Neymar’s signing because the Brazilian’s salary is extremely high and difficult to meet. Therefore, choosing Pogba will meet all of MLS’s financial standards.
