Paul Pogba’s agent has confirmed the midfielder is set to return from injury.
Pogba, 29, rejoined Juventus in the summer on a free transfer after opting against renewing his contract with Manchester United.
Despite being welcomed back to Turin as a hero, Pogba has yet to feature for the ‘Old Lady’ due to a long-standing injury.
However, that looks set to change soon following confirmation from the Frenchman’s agent, Rafaela Pimenta.
Having spoken to Tutto Sport, as relayed by Fabrizio Romano, Pimenta has announced that her star client’s long-awaited return to full fitness is almost over, with the 2018 World Cup winner now in line to make his second debut.
