Paul Pogba Signs for AS Monaco After Doping Ban.
Former Manchester United and Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has signed a two-year contract with Ligue 1 club AS Monaco, marking his return to professiona
l football following an 18-month suspension for a doping violation.
The 2018 World Cup winner had been out of the game since his contract with Juventus was mutually terminated in November 2024. Pogba’s doping ban, initially set for four years in February 2024, was later reduced to 18 months, retroactive to his provisional suspension in September 2023. This allowed him to be eligible to play again as of March 2025.
In an official statement, AS Monaco said:
“AS Monaco are pleased to welcome Paul Pogba. The French World Cup winner has signed a two-year contract, which runs until June 30, 2027.”
Pogba, 32, has not played competitively since appearing as a substitute in Juventus’ 2–0 win over Empoli. He had returned to the Italian side from Manchester United in 2022 but featured only 12 times in his second spell in Turin.
The French midfielder now joins a Monaco side that finished third in Ligue 1 last season, behind Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille. His arrival is expected to strengthen Monaco’s ambitions to challenge for the top of the table.
Pogba will be joining forces with fellow summer signing Eric Dier, a former defender for Tottenham Hotspur and Bayern Munich, who also joined Monaco on a free transfer.
