In the midst of the ongoing transfer window in Saudi Arabia, the spotlight is on two teams making a last-minute bid for Juventus’ midfield maestro, Paul Pogba.
Both Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad have expressed keen interest in acquiring the services of the 30-year-old French midfielder. Despite a series of unfortunate injuries that marred his return to Turin last season, Pogba seems determined to soldier on.

However, the possibility of a move to Saudi Arabia still lingers, as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport.
