Juventus coach, Max Allegri has revealed that midfielder, Paul Pogba will play again for the club in three months’ time after he suffered a new injury setback in training.
Speaking ahead of Juventus’ Coppa Italia quarter-final tie with Lazio on Thursday night, Allegri revealed that Pogba, who has recovered from knee surgery, pulled up short in training yesterday.
He said: “When the players have been back for a long time, I think of Chiesa out for 10 months or Paul [Pogba] for six months, since July 23, they are struggling because they’ve to restart a car that has been standing still for a long time.
“Pogba did a good workout during the week. Then he had some pain: the engine needs to settle down and there it takes time, as happened with Chiesa.”
He added, “Maybe in 2-3 months, he’ll be in optimal condition.”
Pogba, 29, left Man United for Juventus in the summer of 2022.
