At the end of the season, Marseille will again consider a change for Paul Pogba after deciding against the midfielder in January.
Pogba is a free agent after leaving Juventus in November. Both the club and the player who wants a restart after a disappointing second magic in Turin.
The France World Champion was banned for four years after being tested positively for testosterone, but his sanction was reduced to 18 months in the appeal procedure. He is entitled to play again in March.
It ensures a tempting acquisition for every ambitious club and Marseille, which are second in Ligue 1, fit into the bill.
OM Sporting Director Medhi Benatia said to L’Equipe: “We thought about it (Pogba under contract in January).
“We wanted to do it. The problem is when we have brought Paul Pogba with us who is not yet fit, it makes sense to shake our squad to shake up for a player who cannot take part in the end of the season.
“If something can be done, we will be happy to welcome a player like Paul Pogba to give us a helping hand next year if there is the opportunity.”
United Return?
In view of the transmission window, it is now closed and various rules all over Europe, whether clubs can register free agents-it probably seems that the 31-year-old will have to wait until everyone can do their movement.
Pogba recently teased a return to Manchester United with a message on social media, and Rio Ferdinand would certainly take the opportunity.
The former defender of United told Rio: “You would like to think that he would (go somewhere). Sure he has to go somewhere.
“Pogba at United? I would come in and train with us and see what you have. I would do that. I would have done that. I would say, come in and get fit and let us take a little look at it. “
