UEFA Champions League
The reduction of Paul Pogba's doping sanction, lowered to 18 months by the Lausanne TAS, has enabled the French midfielder to return to action in March 2025. However, this return poses a significant financial challenge for Juventus of Turin. Pogba's salary, which has currently been reduced to around 2,000 euros per month due to the sanction, will return to its original value in March, creating a significant cost for the club.
Economic Issue, but There Is a Way Out
Upon his reintegration, Pogba will again receive a salary of 8 million euros net annually, amounting to over 10 million gross when taxes and bonuses are added, thanks to the agreement reached by the French player upon his return to the Italian club. This salary represents a burden of almost 3.5 million gross euros just between March and June 2025. According to 'Calciofinanza', in a Juventus seeking to stabilize its finances, this situation poses a real complication, especially with the club's 199 million euros of losses from the last fiscal year.
Given this scenario, the club is looking for alternatives to minimize the economic impact of Pogba. The United States emerges as an interesting option, with the possibility of the Frenchman moving to the MLS. Pogba's departure would not only alleviate Juventus' finances, but also allow the player to start a new chapter in his career after months of uncertainty. Discussions for a potential contract termination are already underway, but the final outcome is yet to be seen.
