According to French media, Paul Pogba completed the full training program with the whole team on November 20 and is expected to maintain a stable physical condition in the next training session.
If there are no problems, he will travel to Rennes with the team and is likely to be put on the field.
AS Monaco aims to gradually increase Pogba's playing minutes, aiming to make it possible for him to play 2 full matches only 3 days apart. The midfielder also hopes to return to the French national team to compete for a place in the 2026 World Cup, where he has now made 91 appearances and scored 11 goals.
Pogba's comeback journey has been interrupted many times. He was scheduled to play against Angers in October, but a minor injury during training ruined the plan.
Recently, coach Sabastien Pocognoli planned to use Pogba in the match against Paris FC, but just 2 days before the match, the former Juventus star suffered a tipped knee and was forced to sit out.
"We will evaluate Pogba based on what he has shown at the moment. I hope he's ready. Every time Pogba appears on the pitch, I see a happy player determined to get back to the top" - Pocognoli said.
The match against Rennes in round 13 of Ligue 1 on November 23 could become an important turning point in Pogba's journey to regain the image of an excellent midfielder.
After leaving Juventus, the 32-year-old midfielder signed a 2-year contract with AS Monaco this summer. Pogba's last appearance was as a substitute in Juventus' 2-0 win over Empoli.
