Paul Pogba Returns to Monaco After 18-Month Ban, Sancho Future Uncertain at Manchester United

Jadon Sancho, currently facing an uncertain future at Manchester United after an underwhelming loan spell at Chelsea, has publicly supported former teammate Paul Pogba following Pogba's return to professional football with AS Monaco after an 18-month doping ban. Pogba signed a two-year contract with Monaco, marking his comeback to Ligue 1, and Sancho expressed his enthusiasm on Instagram, calling Pogba "My Brother" and stating "PP is back." Despite interest from clubs like Juventus and Fenerbahce, Sancho's high wages have complicated potential transfers. Chelsea chose to pay a £5 million penalty to avoid a permanent transfer obligation for Sancho after his loan ended. Meanwhile, Sancho has also encouraged rising talent Jamie Gittens, who is tipped to replace him at Chelsea. Sancho’s recent social media interactions, including messages similar to those of Marcus Rashford, have drawn mixed reactions from fans and analysts regarding his professionalism and future at Manchester United.
