Midfielder Paul Pogba will undergo surgery to repair his injured meniscus, Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri confirmed.
The 29-year-old midfielder, who won the 2018 World Cup with France, returned to training this week after trying to recover from the injury without surgery, but Allegri said that an operation is now inevitable.
“This morning Pogba trained for the second time, but then stopped, and it was then decided that he undergo surgery” Allegri said in a press conference Monday. “We will realistically get him back in January.”
