Paul Pogba is set to return to football in the new year but already has already hinted at a new job
Paul Pogba has landed himself a new job away from football.
Pogba, 31, is still under contract at Juventus, after leaving Manchester United back in 2022. However, the talented Frenchman has not played football since September 2023, during a 2-0 win for the Serie A giants against Empoli.
That’s because of a footballing ban he was slapped with back in August 2023, which saw him initially punished for four years after returning a positive testosterone sample. Pogba has since seen his lengthy ban reduced, meaning he is free to return in early 2025, something he admits he is looking forward too.

However, the former United academy graduate has now been signed up to feature in upcoming release ‘4 Zeros’, where he will play a youth team football coach. Having recently premiered, the midfielder took to Instagram to release news of his latest venture.
“Super happy to appear in the movie 4 Zero,” Pogba wrote on Instagram. Having gained over 700,000 likes on his post, it is clear to see the effect the former United man still has within the media and on the footballing world.
Speculation has also gained traction over the last few weeks, with some confused as to what steps lay ahead for Pogba given new coach Thiago Motta has seemingly insisted the 31-year-old does not have a future at Juventus when he returns to club football.
His no. 10 shirt was handed to Turkey international Kenan Yildiz earlier this year, with Motta stating: “On Paul Pogba, the club will evaluate what to do. As for me, Pogba has been a great player, who hasn’t played for a long time. Now I’m focused on tomorrow’s game and everything else doesn’t matter much to me at this moment.”
