Hope for Paul Pogba: Marseille chief drops fresh transfer hint about possible reunion with former Man Utd team-mate Mason Greenwood at Ligue 1 club

Pogba will be free to start playing again as of this month after he saw his four-year doping ban cut to 18 months last October, but he remains a free agent since his Juventus contract was terminated shortly after the suspension was cut.

Marseille had been seen as the frontrunners to sign the ex-Manchester United player, but no deal materialised, with coach Roberto De Zerbi explaining: "Nobody will unbalance my dressing room as long as I am [the] coach."

However, the Ligue 1 club's president has hinted that the 32-year-old could still be brought in as he admitted that there have been talks.

"We had the opportunity, there were some conversations, and we've considered this possibility," he told El Larguero. "Looking to the future, he's obviously a player of an important level, and a name like that on the market is always valuable. Looking ahead, we're focused on the end of the season, and perhaps in three weeks we'll have a clearer vision of the plan. Obviously, a player like that on the market is something to be valued."

Pogba has not played since September 2023 when he came on as a substitute in a Serie A clash against Empoli before his ban was confirmed. He will hope to get back on the field soon by finding a new team.
