Paul Pogba and Juventus is over! French midfielder becomes a free agent after contract termination and heads to Miami to train for his next move

Pogba was initially handed a four-year suspension after failing a doping test after a Serie A match against Udinese in August 2023. The ban was then reduced to just 18 months, meaning the Frenchman will be able to return to competitive action in March. However, Juventus have started a new project under Thiago Motta this season, and Pogba’s time at the Allianz Stadium is set to come to an end.

Juventus have now reached an agreement to terminate Pogba's contract by mutual consent. The official announcement from Juventus was made on Friday evening.

A statement read: "Juventus Football Club and Paul Pogba announce that they have mutually agreed to the termination of the sports performance contract, effective from 30 November 2024.

"The company wishes Paul all the best for his professional future."

In 2022, Pogba rejoined Juventus from Manchester United on a lucrative €8 million contract. According to Gazzetta della Sport, Pogba's contract termination means Juventus will save around €30m, including his annual salary and any bonuses he would have received in the last 12 months of his deal.

The Frenchman is currently training in Miami as per Fabrizio Romano as he looks to be in shape in time for his return to action in March. He will be allowed to begin training with a club officially in January.
