In a move few saw coming, Paul Pogba has officially signed for Liverpool, reuniting with Premier League football under new Reds manager Arne Slot. The transfer has stunned the football world — not just due to Pogba’s free-agent status following his Juventus exit, but because of the fierce rivalry between his former club, Manchester United, and Liverpool.
Pogba’s career has been anything but predictable. After breaking through at Manchester United, he became a star at Juventus, winning multiple Serie A titles and personal accolades. His big-money return to Old Trafford never reached expected heights, marred by inconsistency and injuries. A lengthy suspension kept him off the pitch for nearly two years — and many doubted he would return to top-tier football.
But now, Liverpool has given him a second chance.
The surprise signing appears to be a credit to Arne Slot, who has quickly built a reputation as an intelligent and forward-thinking coach. With Liverpool entering a new era under his guidance, Pogba was drawn to the project — one that offers him a fresh platform to revive his career at one of Europe’s elite clubs.
Signing Pogba on a free made the deal financially low-risk for Liverpool, allowing them to add a world-class talent without breaking the bank.
Fans have reacted with excitement and curiosity. Pogba’s blend of power, creativity, and experience could add a new dimension to Liverpool’s midfield — if he can rediscover his best form.
This shock transfer sends a clear message: Liverpool under Arne Slot means business. And now, all eyes turn to Pogba’s debut — and whether the Frenchman can finally deliver on his immense promise.
