Paul Pogba has joined AS Monaco on a free transfer, the Ligue 1 club said on Saturday, as the 32-year-old French midfielder looks to revive his career following a doping ban.
A source told ESPN that Pogba, who has signed a two-year deal at Monaco, turned down a lucrative deal from a Saudi Pro League side.
The World-Cup winning midfielder's last competitive game came in September 2023 for Juventus.
Pogba was handed a four-year doping ban in February 2024 after testing positive for DHEA, which boosts testosterone levels. The suspension was cut to 18 months after a successful appeal at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
Italian club Juventus announced in November that they had mutually agreed to terminate his contract, which was due to expire in June 2026.
Pogba has previously been linked with moves in MLS and the Saudi Pro League, but he will mark his return to action in his home country.
Pogba came through the academy at Le Havre but hasn't played competitively before in France, with his club career split between stints at Manchester United and Juventus.
