Pogba to start from bench for Juventus against Roma

Paul Pogba will be on the bench for Juventus against AS Roma this weekend.

Pogba made his first appearance for Juve since his summer return from Manchester United in the midweek Derby della Mole win against Torino.

La Gazzetta dello Sport says after the half hour played in the derby, Pogba followed a personalised programme in the gym together with Juan Cuadrado and Filip Kostic in order not to overplay recovery times and avoid unnecessary risks.

Against Roma he will not start the game, but Pogba will be involved in the second-half as the Frenchman is gradually introduced.
