In a brief statement on its website, the Serie A club writes that they have agreed with Pogba to terminate the contract on November 30 and wish the midfielder good luck in his future career.

Already about a month ago, Juventus sports director Cristiano Giuntoli said that there was no place for Pogba.

Paul was a great player, but he has been away from play for a long time. Both last year and this year, we have been forced to invest in other players and right now the squad is complete, said Giuntoli to Dazn.

The 31-year-old Pogba tested positive for testosterone in August 2023 after a match with Juventus. He was banned for four years but later had his sentence reduced to 18 months by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas).

This enables a comeback on March 11, 2025.
