The 91-time France international has turned down the possibility of joining Newcastle once his suspension comes to an end in March 2025, according to Fichajes.
Despite interest from the English club, the French midfielder is not considering the move and is instead focused on exploring other destinations to revive his career after a difficult spell at Juventus.
The 31-year-old is currently enduring one of the toughest periods of his career. After returning to Juventus in 2022 in a bid to rediscover his best form, Pogba has been plagued by persistent injuries and, more recently, a doping suspension.
Initially handed a four-year ban, the Court of Arbitration for Sport reduced his sentence to 18 months, meaning he will be able to return to action early next year.
Newcastle, who are looking to strengthen their squad to remain competitive both in the Premier League and on the European stage, had earmarked Pogba as a potential key addition to their midfield.
However, the player appears more inclined towards a return to French football or a move to the financially attractive Saudi Arabian league, with these options better aligned with his current aspirations.
