Pogba returns to full training

Paul Pogba today made his grand return to the first-team squad as the Bianconeri resumed training after enjoying a day off in the wake of Tuesday’s 2-1 Champions League semi-final first leg triumph over Real Madrid.

The Frenchman has recovered from the thigh injury picked up in the last 16 second leg meeting with Borussia Dortmund in Germany and joined up with his team-mates for this afternoon’s training.

Fitness work, possession and a practice match formed the ingredients of the session, played out in glorious May sunshine.

Ahead of the Bianconeri’s final workout before Saturday’s meeting with Cagliari at Juventus Stadium, Massimiliano Allegri will meet the media at midday CET tomorrow.
