Paul Pogba, a 33-year-old French central midfielder who is now a free agent after being released from Monaco a year before his contract was due to end, is being offered to Brazilian clubs by intermediaries. The player was recently linked to both Corinthians and Santos. In mid-2024, there was a connection between Corinthians and Pogba, which involved a video call with Memphis Depay and the club's financial director, Pedro Silveira, though the club's president at the time, Augusto Melo, denied any official move. In 2025, Santos was also interested, with Neymar even trying to persuade Pogba to accept an offer from the club, but the midfielder chose to continue his career in Europe.
At present, Corinthians has not been approached by intermediaries offering the player, and if a proposal is made, the club is expected to reject it due to active transfer bans and serious financial issues that prevent the acquisition of high-profile players. Pogba has 91 caps and 11 goals for France, and his current Transfermarkt market value is €2.50m.
