The club wishes Paul the very best for his professional future.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>His return to Juve did not go according to plan, making just eight Serie A appearances and contributing to zero goals in the process.<\/p>\n<h2>Who Will Paul Pogba Join Next?<\/h2>\n<p>The 2018 World Cup winner is now on the radar of several clubs, with many pushing for a move to Saudi Arabia given how far the league has progressed in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>His fellow countrymen, Karim Benzema, N&#8217;golo Kante and Moussa Diaby have all obtained lucrative deals in the Saudi Pro League and may persuade Pogba to follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>A move in Europe could also be on the cards, as Pogba spoke in a recent live stream online about his love for Manchester United but also his admiration for Arsenal.<\/p>\n<p>His next step could prove crucial after being handed a second chance in football and Pogba will also be looking at the 2026 World Cup as an objective.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Juventus have terminated the contract of Paul Pogba, meaning the Frenchman will be a free agent when he returns to football in March
