Paul Pogba loses one of his most important suitors

Paul Pogba can now plan his return to the playing fields after serving his doping suspension, but what seemed to be a nearly done deal has fallen through. Olympique de Marsella, which had shown strong interest in acquiring the services of the world champion, has backtracked. The club's president, Pablo Longoria, publicly confirmed that they will not move forward with the deal.

"We spoke with Pogba and considered the possibility of adding him as a free agent, but ultimately decided not to continue with the signing. We believe that his adaptation process could disrupt the team's internal balance," explained the leader, completely dismissing the option of the former Juventus player joining Vélodrome.

His future lies in exotic leagues, MLS, or Arabia

It's worth noting that even if Marsella had sealed his transfer, Pogba would not have been able to play a single minute this season in Ligue 1, due to the French competition’s regulations that prevent players without contracts from joining a team mid-season.

With this scenario, Pogba's alternatives are significantly narrowed down. Currently, the only real options for him to return to immediate competition are outside of European football. Major League Soccer and the Saudi League emerge as possible destinations for the French midfielder to regain competitive rhythm before the start of the next season. In Europe, as of now, the doors seem closed.
