Pogba returns with the first 11: scored against Alessandria

The French midfielder is seen again: from the beginning together with Fagioli in the last pre-season test.

Rehearsals by Paul Pogba. Well, it won't be much, but you start to concretely glimpse the light at the end of the tunnel. In the last pre-champion test, on the occasion of the joint training against Alessandria, the Frenchman - together with Nicolò Fagioli - started from the first minute. Moral of the story? The score is the former Manchester United, increasingly eager to get a very complicated season behind him.

QUALITY IN POWER

Dwelling on the characteristics of the French midfielder is an exercise as trivial as it is taken for granted. It speaks, in fact, the career of PP. Which, however, is now called upon to resume the path. Juve awaits him, and it could not be otherwise, being made more so that in this case a single word must be used: patience. Forbidden to force oversize, forbidden to run into (other) bad surprises.

EXTRA LUXURY CONTRACT

Archived last season, Pogba with Juventus has another three years of contract. And what a contract: from about 8 million plus bonuses. Another reason why at Continassa they intend to recover their number 10 in the best possible way. In short, a substantial investment that requires a change of pace in terms of performance.

THE WORDS OF MAX ALLEGRI

So the Livorno coach, a few days ago, after the family test: "Last year I said that Pogba would surely have difficulty playing, this year I see it the other way around. I see that Paul has a good reaction, especially at the knee. It is normal that we cannot expect that in 20 days he will be able to play from the beginning, since he never played last year. But he is such a strong and good player that having him already available for only 20-25 minutes in the course of the game would be very important."

MARKET: ARAB SIRENS

In recent weeks there has been no shortage of rumors related to a possible landing of Pogba in Arabia. And, just in a nuts, a blitz of the direct interested in Jedda occurred: officially for religious reasons. However, the polls of the Saudi championship remain, an idea that could come back in fashion during the next episodes.
