Paul Pogba is having a tough time with his poor form. The midfielder has been out of action for Juventus since suffering a knee injury. The 29-year-old was due to return against Lazio on Thursday but Massimilliano Allegri confirmed at a press conference that he is ruled out of the game.

Paul Pogba is not going through his best moment. The French player decided to return to play for Juventus in the Italian Cup match against Lazio. However, his form has deteriorated again.

The midfielder suffered a serious injury in a training session and was out of action for several months. Pogba had to undergo surgery and missed the World Cup in Qatar.

He tried to recover during the World Cup to play for Juventus and try to return as soon as possible. Nevertheless, Pogba was on the bench in the 0-2 defeat against Monza but the Italian coach did not dare to bring him on.

Massimilliano Allegri confirmed on Wednesday that the midfielder will miss the encounter against Lazio and will need a few more days to recover. The French footballer has not played a game for nine months and it had taken 271 days for him to be called back into the squad.
