World Cup winner set for Ligue 1 return as French club also chase Barcelona’s Ansu Fati
AS Monaco are closing in on a stunning double swoop, with Paul Pogba in advanced talks to join the Ligue 1 side on a two-year deal as the French midfielder seeks to resurrect his career after an 18-month doping suspension. The 32-year-old could be joined at the Stade Louis II by Barcelona outcast Ansu Fati, as Monaco look to bolster their Champions League-bound squad with high-profile reinforcements.
Pogba’s Path to Redemption
The former Manchester United and Juventus star has been offered a contract through 2027, with negotiations expected to continue through the weekend. After seeing his four-year ban reduced by the Court of Arbitration for Sport, Pogba has been free to play since March but waited for the right project – rejecting lucrative offers from Saudi Arabia and MLS to remain in Europe.
Key details of Pogba’s potential comeback:
🏆 Would join Monaco just 40 miles from his birthplace in Lagny-sur-Marne
⚽ Last played competitively in September 2023 before his doping suspension
🇫🇷 Hasn’t featured for France since 2022 but eyes return ahead of 2026 World Cup
Monaco’s Ambitious Summer Plans
The principality club, fresh off a third-place Ligue 1 finish, are also working on a deal for Ansu Fati. Once hailed as Messi’s heir at Barcelona, the 22-year-old winger managed zero goal contributions last season amid injury struggles and falling down the pecking order under Hansi Flick.
For Pogba, Monaco represents:
✅ A chance to rebuild his reputation in familiar surroundings
✅ Champions League football next season
✅ Less pressure than at previous elite clubs
As one source close to the negotiations told us: “Paul knows this is likely his last chance at the highest level. Monaco offers him the perfect platform to remind everyone of his world-class talent.” With preseason approaching, all parties are motivated to finalize what could be one of the summer’s most intriguing transfers.
