Paul Pogba, a midfielder for France, will miss the World Cup owing to persistent knee issues.
Pogba had surgery on his right knee in early September, and it wasn’t until this month that he started working out again with Juventus.
Since coming back to Juventus from Manchester United, he hasn’t played and sustained another injury. Tests in Turin and Pittsburgh confirmed the 29-year-old Pogba will not be fit in time for the World Cup.
A Juventus official told The Associated Press, “We won’t see him until 2023 and his crew have verified that likewise he will be out of the World Cup.”
Rafaela Pimenta, his agent, also issued a statement.
“After medical exams yesterday and today, it is extremely painful to announce that Paul Pogba needs more rehabilitation after his operation,” she said.
Paul is unable to represent France in Qatar due to this.
