French midfielder Paul Pogba made his long-awaited return to the pitch for Juventus in their match against Torino on Sunday. It was his second debut for the Italian giants after re-joining the club from Manchester United earlier this year.
Pogba had been out of action since September 2021 due to an injury, which forced him to miss both club and international fixtures. However, he made a quick recovery and was included in Juventus’ squad for the Turin derby.
The 28-year-old was brought in the second half by manager Massimiliano Allegri, and he didn’t disappoint. Pogba showed glimpses of his brilliance in midfield, displaying his excellent vision, passing range, and ball-carrying ability.
Pogba’s presence in the Juventus midfield was a huge boost for the team, and his return comes at a crucial time in their season. It remains to be seen if Pogba can maintain his fitness and form for the rest of the season, but his performance against Torino suggests that he is fully focused on helping Juventus achieve their objectives.
Overall, it was an encouraging return to action for Paul Pogba, and Juventus fans will be hoping to see more of the same from the talented midfielder in the coming weeks.
