Paul Pogba’s Return to Action in 2025: Ban Reduced to 18 Months

Paul Pogba’s drug ban reduced to 18 months! He returns to Juventus training in January 2025, with official matches starting in March.

A major turn of events awaits the dreams of football fans around the world as France’s midfielder Paul Pogba will temporarily be held out, and he will return during the 2025 season, though his ban was reduced from the initial four years to 18 months.

The star man of Juventus will be out to resume training in January and can make his appearance on the official games of March 2025. News like this is a huge relief for Pogba, Juventus, and his supporters who have been counting down the days to his return to the pitch.

He received a four-year suspension following his positive test for a banned substance, a ruling that shocked the football world. Juventus certainly missed him because they have been struggling in midfield without the star player. Under scrutiny following his positive test, developments of late suggest that the ban on him has been reduced enough to see him return to action sooner than he had anticipated.

Ban Reduction: A New Start for Pogba

Reduction of Pogba’s ban to 18 months means he will be back in training by January 2025 and at least ready for competitive football by March. His return could, in particular, come to be crucial for Juventus at this moment in their attempt to gradually build a competitive team capable of challenging for the greatest honors in Europe. The experience and talent of the 30-year-old midfielder will obviously play a key role in their ambitions.

This development, however, comes as even better news for Pogba, given that he would be exempted from paying any amount to the court, thus adding less burden for the player. His coming back would open a new chapter in his career, where he would try to regain his form and also contribute to helping Juventus clinch victory at home as well as in the European arena.

For Pogba personally, this is an opportunity to rebuild his career after a tumultuous few years. The Frenchman has had to deal with injuries, form struggles, and now this ban, but the reduction gives him a lifeline to make a strong comeback. As the 2025 season approaches, fans will be keen to see whether Pogba can rediscover the form that made him one of the best midfielders in world football.
