With conservative treatment and rest, however, he only has to miss five weeks and could return to the field as early as September.
The Italian Tuttosport knows that the leaders of Juventus wanted to operate on Pogba's knee and the player would be fully recovered by the beginning of next year, but the 29-year-old footballer decided otherwise.
