The hypothesis of seeing Paul Pogba land at Olympique de Marseille seduced observers.
Paul Pogba will finally regain service. Free of any contract after having terminated his lease with Juventus, the 2018 world champion has been able to find the competition for several months since his suspension for positive testosterone control has been lifted by the Sports Arbitral Tribunal.
And for the first time in his career, Paul Pogba should express his talent in Ligue 1. After the Premier League and Serie A, the midfielder, who had only made a few appearances in Ligue 2 with Le Havre, his training club, heads for AS Monaco.
Paul Pogba will return.
The Principality club is however not the only stable to have thought of relaunching the career of one of the most talented French players of its generation. Before ASM, Olympique de Marseille was also positioned on the French international.
Di Meco would have liked to see Pogba at OM
Asked about this file, Eric Di Meco, legend of Olympique de Marseille, said that he would have liked to see Paul Pogba put on the jersey of his heart club. “” I am one of those who think that he can come back to a very good level and that he will render services to his future clubsaid Di Meco on RMC. I will be happy for Monaco if they manage to recover it. I would have hoped that OM put itself on the spot. Knowing him well, I think Medhi Benatia had to find out. After there are certain doubts. When you have a cloakroom that works well, you think before bringing a big personality, which may not be at the level. You have to weigh the pros and cons. »
Di Meco nevertheless recognizes that the choice of the player seems judicious. “” If I am the entourage of Paul Pogba, I tell him to go to Monaco while running. Because there, there is no pressure there was in Marseille. There you are quiet. He will be well cocooned by the leaders and by all the people of Monaco. Suddenly, it will be in great conditions, the training center is wonderful, it is a big club that plays the Champions League and it will be given time to return to the highest level. While in Marseille, it might not have been the case. There are more risks for him by coming to Marseille than in going to Monaco “Concluded the consultant.
