According to the goal network, Monaco has carefully prepared a physical training plan for Pogba and will not make his debut for Monaco until October.
After the suspension period officially ended in March, Pogba attracted the attention of many clubs around the world, but the plans offered by Monaco were spotted by Pogba because of their rigorous and strategic nature, becoming the ideal choice for the World Cup champion. Since then, Pogba has been conducting well-prepared physical training and has shown positive signs of progress in the pre-season training camp in Monaco in England.
However, Monaco does not intend to rush Pogba to come back. After all, the team's midfield strength is one of the best in Ligue 1, second only to Paris Saint-Germain, which gives the club enough confidence to gradually return to the game with an appropriate rhythm.
Pogba had hoped to make his debut in Monaco's first Ligue 1 match in the 2025/26 season against Le Havre, who was a youth training student, but the club emphasized that his long-term health must be given priority over short-term emotional factors, so this wish was temporarily stranded.
Monaco CEO Scuro told the BBC: "I can guarantee that Pogba will not participate in the game against Le Havre. We must be realistic and expect him to need a three-month recovery period." This means that Pogba is expected to make his debut for Monaco in early October, in line with the club's cautious and optimistic comeback plan.
It is reported that Pogba has impressed his new teammates, and naturally established good relationships with senior and young players in the team with his charm and confidence, becoming one of the mentors in the team. This has played a positive role in Monaco's equilibrium lineup that is both dynamic and experienced.
Although fans are looking forward to Pogba's return to the arena, Monaco's consensus is very clear: the long-term benefits of a fully healthy Pogba brings far more than the short-term excitement of a premature comeback. Therefore, Pogba will continue to miss the final preseason game between Monaco and Inter on August 8.
