Paul Pogba has not said his last word. At 33 years old, the French midfielder is still training at AS Monaco’s facilities — the club that terminated his contract on August 19 — and has set social media ablaze with a cryptic Instagram post.

On Wednesday, “La Pioche” posted a training session photo accompanied by an image of Josep Pedrerol, the Spanish presenter of the show El Chiringuito de Jugones, known for his bombshell revelations. The caption: “Tic Tac” — Pedrerol’s signature expression for announcing big news. Enough to fuel speculation about an imminent signing.

However, questions remain about his fitness level. Pogba accumulated just 115 minutes of play across all competitions during the past season, caught between a doping suspension and physical setbacks. A return to European elite football seems unlikely under these circumstances.

The most serious lead points toward MLS. DC United, Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami, and New York City are among the destinations mentioned. A financial offer from Saudi Arabia is also not to be ruled out, according to available information.

For now, the mystery remains. Pogba’s “Tic Tac” has at least achieved one thing: reminding everyone that the former 2018 World Cup champion has not yet closed the book on professional football.
