Among the clubs reportedly interested is Olympique de Marseille (OM), with former teammate Patrice Evra publicly pushing for a move to the Vélodrome.
The 31-year-old midfielder recently parted ways with Juventus by mutual consent, making him a free agent.
While Pogba expressed a willingness to take a pay cut to stay with the Serie A club, his departure has opened the door for discussions with other European clubs.
According to ESPN, Pogba remains keen to play in one of Europe’s top five leagues, fueling rumours of a potential move to Marseille.
Speaking to BeIn Sports after Marseille’s 1-0 win over RC Lens, OM coach Roberto De Zerbi addressed the speculation.
“I like strong players, but there is nothing for now,” the Italian tactician said.
