Juventus star Pogba injured again!
French star Paul Pogba may be out of action again due to injury, as he complained of back pain after Juventus' Serie A match against Empoli. Pogba, the dynamic midfielder for Juventus, might find himself sidelined once again due to injury concerns, according to media reports. After making his much-anticipated return to action following a prolonged injury layoff on August 27th against Bologna, Pogba seemed poised for a triumphant resurgence. However, his journey towards full fitness appears to have hit another roadblock.
In Juventus' recent Serie A fixture against Empoli, Pogba was included in the squad and entered the fray as a substitute in the 62nd minute. The match ended positively for Juventus, securing a 2-0 victory, but it was marred by Pogba's unexpected setback. After the game, manager Massimiliano Allegri revealed that Pogba had voiced complaints about experiencing discomfort in his back. To assess the extent of this injury, comprehensive tests are scheduled to be conducted in the upcoming days. Allegri expressed his disappointment, saying, “Pogba felt a pain in the back, we'll see what the exams say. Too bad because it went well.” Pogba's journey with Juventus has been tumultuous since his return in 2022, leaving Manchester United as a free agent. A severe knee problem disrupted his progress, keeping him sidelined for an extended period and necessitating surgical intervention. Notably, this injury forced him to miss Juventus' entire pre-season preparations in the United States earlier this year. As Juventus fans eagerly await further updates on Paul Pogba's condition, the team is scheduled to return to Serie A action on September 16th against Lazio. The hope remains that Pogba's setback is minor, and he can swiftly resume his journey towards full fitness and making a substantial impact for the Bianconeri. A serious knee problem kept him out for a long time and forced him to undergo surgery, as he missed the entire team's pre-season in the United States this year.
