Paul Pogba, timelines lengthen: twisting the Juve market

Paul Pogba could be out more than two months, Juve blocks Rabiot and accelerates for Paredes

Paul Pogba’s knee injury stop could go beyond two months: the Juventus French midfielder will undergo surgery for a lateral meniscus injury, and the exact recovery time will be assessed later.

“If he was one of my players, I would hardly run him after 40-45 days,” Dr. Giacomo Zanon, a knee specialist, explained to Tuttojuve.com. To get back to the best on the field it takes two full months. And that might not be enough. We are talking about a guy who is not a brevilinear, it will take him a while to get back on the field.”

Meanwhile, Juventus is running for cover: the Bianconeri executives have taken Adrien Rabiot, who was initially set to be sold, off the market and are accelerating with Psg to close as soon as possible for Leandro Paredes; the gap between supply and demand is still more than 5 million.
