Paul Pogba 18-month ban from football official ended on Tuesday March 11, 2025, but has decided to take his time to choose his next club and is not likely to sign anytime until the end of the season.

The France International is limited by choices, as he can only sign for sides in major League Soccer, whose window closes on April 23 or in Japan’s J1 League, whose window closes on March 26.

Although, he has already had interest from number of clubs in recent months, including Ligue1’s Marseille Serie A’s, Fiorentina and number of LaLiga sides.

However, Pogba is eyeing a place in France’s 2026 World Cup squad and believes that finding a club in Europe, preferably in the Champions League, or Europa League, would be the best route to doing so.

Pogba regarded as one the best midfielders in world football, turn 32 on Saturday, was initially handed a four-year suspension after he tested positive for DHEA, a barred substance.

It was later reduced to eighteen months by the Court of Arbitration for Sport after appeal. That ban came to end on Tuesday.
