Monaco Parts Ways With Pogba After Injury-Struggled Spell

Monaco has parted ways with midfielder Paul Pogba after the former France star's stay was hampered by injuries. The 2018 World Cup winner, who signed a two-year deal last year, made only a few substitute appearances last season and recently picked up another injury during preseason.

"Acknowledging that the objectives initially set have only been partially met, Monaco and Paul Pogba have decided to terminate the contract," the club stated. The 33-year-old Pogba, who was banned for 18 months after a doping case, added: "Monaco is an exceptional club. Even though I didn't play as many matches as I had hoped, I will always be grateful for the opportunity." Monaco finished seventh in Ligue 1 last season. albergomalica.it
