AS Monaco have officially offered a two-year contract to French midfielder Paul Pogba<\/a><\/strong>, with negotiations ongoing as both parties work toward finalizing a deal that could mark the 32-year-old\u2019s return to Ligue 1. The move comes as part of Monaco\u2019s ambitious summer strategy, which also includes advanced talks to sign Barcelona winger Ansu Fati.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pogba has been a free agent since mutually terminating his contract with Juventus in late 2024, following an 18-month suspension for a doping violation. Initially handed a four-year ban after testing positive for testosterone in September 2023, the World Cup winner successfully appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, which reduced the suspension and cleared him to resume his career in March 20252.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, Monaco are offering Pogba a platform to relaunch his career in familiar territory. The club has reportedly tabled a two-year contract running until June 2027<\/a><\/strong>, with discussions over the sporting project and Pogba\u2019s role continuing through the weekend<\/p>\n\n\n\n A return to France would mark Pogba\u2019s first stint in Ligue 1 since his youth days at Le Havre. Monaco, who finished third in the 2024\/25 Ligue 1 season and secured Champions League qualification, are looking to bolster their midfield with experience and leadership<\/a>. Pogba, despite recent setbacks, brings a wealth of pedigree\u2014having won 14 major trophies across spells with Manchester United, Juventus, and the French national team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The move would also reunite Pogba with top-tier European football, something he reportedly prioritized over more lucrative offers from Saudi Arabia and MLS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pogba isn\u2019t the only marquee name on Monaco\u2019s radar. The club is also in the final stages of securing a loan deal for Ansu Fati<\/a><\/strong>, the 22-year-old Barcelona winger once dubbed the heir to Lionel Messi. Fati is expected to join on loan with a \u20ac14 million <\/a>buy option, and Barcelona have insisted on a buy-back clause to retain long-term control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Together, Pogba and Fati represent a bold statement of intent from Monaco\u2014blending experience, flair, and untapped potential as they prepare for a return to Europe\u2019s elite competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While no agreement has been finalized, sources close to the negotiations suggest that Monaco are optimistic<\/strong> <\/a>about reaching a deal with Pogba in the coming days. The midfielder has already begun training in anticipation of pre-season and is said to be eager to prove himself once again at the highest level3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Paul Pogba\u2019s potential move to AS Monaco could be one of the most compelling comeback stories in recent football history.<\/strong> After a turbulent period marked by injury and suspension, the Frenchman now has a chance to reignite his career in a league that shaped his early development. With Monaco also closing in on Ansu Fati, the Principality club is assembling a squad that blends ambition with redemption.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPogba\u2019s Road to Redemption After Doping Ban<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
