French football star Paul Pogba has officially signed with AS Monaco, making a bold return to the sport following a suspension that rocked his career. The move comes as Pogba continues to appeal a four-year ban imposed after he tested positive for elevated testosterone while at Juventus.
His signing with Monaco is more than a contract—it’s a second chance.
🏟️ What Is Monaco Getting?
AS Monaco is betting big on Pogba’s comeback. The club is known for developing stars like Kylian Mbappé and James Rodríguez, and adding Pogba brings:
- Global attention
- Increased merchandise potential
- Veteran leadership to a young squad
The deal is reportedly performance-based, minimizing financial risk while positioning the club for a major reward if Pogba’s ban is shortened.
💸 Pogba’s Wealth and Lifestyle

- Estimated net worth: $70–80 million
- Owns real estate in Miami, Paris, and Turin
- Still retains lucrative deals with Adidas and more
- Known for flashy fashion, high-end cars, and charitable work
His move to Monaco—a luxurious city-state known for its wealth—fits perfectly with his image.
⏳ What’s Next for Pogba?
Paul Pogba has everything to gain:
- A clean slate in Ligue 1, the league where he first turned heads
- A chance to re-establish himself in the French national team conversation
