Pogba Ruled Out of Monaco vs. Paris FC After Training Ankle Knock

Monaco awaits scans to determine severity, with coach Sébastien Pocognoli targeting availability after the international break.

Overview

  • Pocognoli confirmed Pogba injured his ankle in Thursday's session and will miss Saturday's match against Paris FC.
  • Further examinations will grade the injury, as the player finished Thursday's work but was not fully comfortable bearing weight on Friday.
  • The staff hopes the issue proves to be a short sprain, with a tentative return aimed for the Rennes trip on November 22.
  • Pogba, 32, has followed a re-athletisation program since signing on June 28 and was set for potential first minutes this weekend before the setback.
  • An Oct. 18 comeback against Angers was already delayed by a right-thigh alert, and he has not played competitively since September 2023 after a suspension later reduced to 18 months by the CAS.
