Giroud Says Pogba Might Stay in Europe and Not Join Messi at Inter Miami
Olivier Giroud doesn’t see Paul Pogba heading to Inter Miami to join Lionel Messi anytime soon, despite the growing rumors.
Giroud, who shared the pitch with Pogba during their time with the French national team, spoke on the midfielder’s next move after his doping suspension was lifted earlier this year.
Pogba has been a free agent since January and has recently been linked to a move to MLS, particularly Inter Miami. However, Giroud thinks otherwise.
The ex-Arsenal and Chelsea forward, now playing for Los Angeles FC after leaving AC Milan this season, shared his thoughts in an interview with Telefoot.
“It was great to see him again,” Giroud said. “But honestly, I feel like he still wants to stay in Europe. I think that’s where his ambition lies.”
Pogba’s next club is still uncertain, but if Giroud’s take is anything to go by, the 32-year-old might not be ready to cross the Atlantic just yet.
Former footballer Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s match following their loss to Atlético Madrid on October 13.
Speaking during a brief interview on CBS Sports, Henry criticised the practice of players or coaches expressing certain opinions through the media instead of addressing issues directly within the dressing room.
“I’m not a coach anymore, but I always say, whoever speaks like that, out. Keep that in the dressing room, it’s as simple as that,” Henry said on CBS Sports.
“That is the only way it can work. You have to say those things to a person’s face… going through the press, I am not really a fan of that.”
Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on the 2026 Ballon d’Or award, revealing that he hopes the winner will come from his team.
The manager spoke about how hard his players have worked and expressed his belief that they deserve the recognition.
“What I hope is that we win this trophy. We have players who deserve it.”
“Last year, we were the best team. We showed that it wasn’t just Ousmane Dembélé who deserved it.”
French football pundit Walid Acherchour has named Lamine Yamal as his pick to win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, sparking reactions among football fans.
Acherchour’s choice came as a surprise to some fans, who expected him to support fellow Frenchman Kylian Mbappé instead.
Speaking about his prediction, Acherchour expressed confidence in Yamal’s chances of winning the prestigious individual award.
“For me, Lamine Yamal, he is going to get it [2026 Ballon d’Or]. For me, there’s no doubt anymore,” Acherchour said, as quoted by Actu Foot. That start to the season shows that in fact, he was injured during the World Cup. He was the best player in La Liga, and he won the World Cup.
“Even if, for me, in fact, he doesn’t have the Ballon d’Or unanimously because his World Cup was average, even being average, he won it with Spain. He won La Liga with Barça.”
