Paul Pogba will miss the next leg of Juventus’ pre-season tour of the U.S. after suffering a knee injury.
“Following complaints of pain in his right knee, Pogba underwent radiological examinations which revealed a lesion of the lateral meniscus,” the club confirmed on their official website.

“Therefore, in order to continue treatment, he is not taking part in the trip to Dallas,” the club said.
In the U.S., Juventus will face LaLiga side FC Barcelona.
