Pogba’s Future: OM or No Way?
Ah, Paul Pogba! The man who could make a more dramatic entrance than a cat on a hot tin roof. With the CAS chopping down his ban from four years to a featherweight sentence, suddenly the football world is buzzing with speculation about where his next club might be. Will the prodigal son return to the pitch in the glamorous depths of Major League Soccer, or perhaps indulge in the extravagant lifestyle of Saudi Arabian football? Or could the whispers of a move to Olympique de Marseille have some serious legs? Let’s not beat around the bush—it’s sounding a tad more interesting than a soap opera on its finale week!
Pogba: Juve to OM—What Could Go Wrong?
As hinted by our ever-enthusiastic sports YouTuber, Zach Nani, Pogba at OM is practically a match made in heaven. I mean, the man’s 31, and given the right environment, he may just wake up from his slumber like a bear coming out of hibernation. It’s almost comedy gold—Pogba back in Ligue 1, strutting his stuff at a club that thrives on its popularity! If that doesn’t peel your potato, I don’t know what will. The lad needs a bit of love, a little rehab for the football soul, and what better place than Marseille, where the fans would have him back like he never left. Honestly, it’s practically romantic. Let’s just avoid any bangers and mash situations though!

But Not Everyone’s on the Pogba Train
Enter Daniel Riolo, who’s like the ice water on the excited hearts of many OM fans. Did you hear him? “It’s not Dyson, OM! It doesn’t pick up everything that’s lying around.” Ouch! That’s as brutal as my first attempt at making breakfast. Now, while I appreciate a bit of skepticism, Riolo’s view adds an interesting twist. Is Pogba really the kind of player who’s too good for Ligue 1 but not quite good enough for the “big clubs”? Or has he simply become the ultimate summer transfer story that will never leave the sports pages, like a bad smell or a sticky note attached to your forehead at a family reunion?
In Conclusion: A Comedy Plot or Real Potential?
Let’s face it, the world of football is as unpredictable as your uncle after a few too many drinks at Christmas dinner. Pogba’s future remains as clouded as my mind after a marathon of questionable Netflix shows. While Zach Nani sees a clear path to Marseille, Riolo’s skepticism reminds us that nothing in football is ever straightforward. Whoever gets him, Pogba will surely bring fireworks—or at least a couple of confetti cannons, if not a silent prayer for good form. So grab your popcorn, folks! This drama is just beginning, and it promises to be more entertaining than a cat video compilation.

Since the announcement of the reduction of his sanction, the future of Paul Pogba has continued to be talked about. And for good reason, Juventus should terminate the lease of the French international who will be free of any contract for his return to competition next March. Consequently, his future club is expected and while it is announced in MLS or in Saudi Arabia, OM is also cited among its suitors. Zach Nani validated this option.
Initially sanctioned four years, Paul Pogba saw his suspension largely revised downwards by the CAS. Consequently, the French international will be able to return to the field in March. But with which club? Difficult to know at the moment, but Juventus have already indicated that they have started discussions to end his contract. Free, Paul Pogba should therefore attract the attention of many clubs, particularly in MLS or in Saudi Arabia. But theABOUT would also be in the mix. And this is not to displease Zach Nani.

“For me, Pogba at OM is obvious!”
« It’s still quite funny because I have often said on my channel that Pogba at OM, I found the “feat” (collaboration, editor’s note) so logical. For what ? Because he is 31 years old and he needs to relaunch his career. You are going to Ligue 1, if he manages to regain his level he will move to Ligue 1, there is no discussion possible. He is too strong for Ligue 1. He can recover his health in Marseille and find the French team. And above all, you are in a popular club that is very visible! For me, Pogba at OM is obvious! I don’t see him playing for an alternative club in Spain, nor in the big clubs in the major championships », blurts the famous YouTuber on his channel.
Riolo much less optimistic
On the other hand, Daniel Riolo is not at all on the same wavelength and did not hesitate to calm the emerging rumors concerning the arrival of Paul Pogba at theABOUT. « It came out like that, but there’s not half the beginning of any info in there. As soon as there is a name of a player who no longer plays, we send it to OM. It’s not Dyson, OM, it doesn’t pick up everything that’s lying around », he confided on the microphone of RMC these last few days.
