Pogba slashes Cheshire mansion price

Paul Pogba has cut the price of his five-bedroom mansion in Cheshire to £3.5 million, a £450,000 reduction from the original £3.95 million asking price. The 7,402-sq-ft property, located in one of the county’s most affluent areas, was first listed in 2024 after Pogba bought it in 2017 for a discounted price following his record £89 million return to Old Trafford from Juventus.

Property features and recent changes

The home has a state-of-the-art gym, a treatment room, and an indoor football pitch that Pogba installed himself. It also includes a cinema room and a redesigned open-plan living area, kitchen and bedrooms. The original swimming pool and sauna were removed during the renovations. The house sits on a security-gated estate and covers 7,402 sq ft.

Monaco contract termination

Pogba’s exit from AS Monaco came after his contract, originally set to run until June 2027, was terminated a year early. The Ligue 1 club confirmed on Wednesday that the parties had reached an agreement to end the deal ahead of the new season. Pogba had struggled with injuries in pre-season and had only featured in six games last season, earning £44,000 a week.

Background on Pogba’s career

The 33-year-old midfielder left Manchester United in 2018 after six years at the club, where he made over 230 appearances, scored 39 goals and provided 51 assists. He then joined Monaco in 2022, following an 18-month doping ban that was reduced to 18 months on appeal. Pogba was cleared to return to football in March 2025 and had previously left Juventus by mutual consent in November 2024.

Recent attempts to find a new club

Pogba was offered opportunities by MLS clubs last week as he seeks his next venture in the sport. He remains without a club after the early termination of his Monaco contract.

Personal incidents

In 2022, the house was burgled while Pogba’s two children slept in their rooms, an event the midfielder described as his family’s worst nightmare. The intruders stole the family’s sense of safety and security during a raid that lasted less than five minutes.

Current status

Pogba’s price reduction comes as he looks to sell the property quickly while he handles his free-agent status. The mansion’s new asking price of £3.5 million reflects a desire to secure a healthy profit after a difficult period of injury and contractual uncertainty.
