A shock declaration reignites debates on the future of Paul Pogba. A clear opinion, a relevant analysis: what if Marseille was never an option?
The future of Paul Pogba continues to generate a lot of ink. This Wednesday evening, on RMC Sport, a well-known figure in French football delivered a straightforward analysis on the career options of the French international. Without revealing his identity straight away, his words resonate like an implacable observation: Marseille is not a possible destination for the French midfielder.
Pogba: a future far from Ligue 1?
According to this informed observer, in this case Jérôme Rothen, several obstacles make this possibility difficult to believe. “We already have to wonder where Pogba is psychologically. After everything he’s been through in recent months, can he really get back on track in such a demanding environment? And physically, we must remember that he has hardly played for two years.”
Once the mental and physical aspects have been overcome, the contractual point becomes central. This is where the problem lies. “If he thinks he can get a salary commensurate with what he had at Manchester United or Juventus, it’s dead for Marseille. Longoria will never be able to offer such guarantees.”
A financial problem in the background
For the former PSG player, Pogba must reconsider his priorities. “If he wants to return to the top, he must put the financial aspect aside. Otherwise, he will have to target more solvent clubs like Paris Saint-Germain or AS Monaco.”
The verdict in his trial is approaching, but Pogba remains a risky bet. His ability to return to his best level and regain the desire to play will be decisive. Marseille, according to this analysis, seems a utopian destination, but other doors could open to him, provided he adjusts his expectations.
