On May 7, Juventus' official Twitter account reported that Pogba returned to training.

On April 29, Juventus manager Allegri was quoted as saying Pogba could be in line for a return to the Bianconeri squad as soon as "next week," having suffered an injury in March.

Quoted by the official Juventus Twitter account, former Milan coach Allegri gave an idea of when the Frenchman would be able to reunite with his team-mates:

Having just about managed to make their way past Monaco in the previous round, Juve are seeking a tremendous improvement to face Real. Pogba's return would certainly help to give them exactly that.
