JUVENTUS legend Marco Tardelli has blasted Paul Pogba for going on a skiing holiday despite STILL waiting for his second debut for the club due to injury.
Pogba, 29, returned to Turin in July after leaving Man United on a free transfer.
He has yet to play a minute of competitive action since due to a long-term knee injury sustained in the summer.
Despite this, Pogba still found time to enjoy himself on the slopes in December as he shared several snaps of himself skiing.
And that has left former Juventus defender Tardelli, 68, seething.
He told 90 Minute on : “Pogba hasn't played since April 2022, when he was still in Manchester.

“It's now a problem for Juve, we don't know when he'll return and we don't know what he wants to do.
“Pogba goes skiing while his team-mates are struggling with the big problems of Juve.
“Today Pogba is a big problem that the Bianconeri must solve.
“This situation also demonstrates that Juve do not have clear enough ideas.

“[Massimiliano] Allegri has to take over for me, it's not possible to have a player like that on the payroll.
“His behaviour towards his team-mates isn't fair either, it annoys me.”
Despite his big wages, Juve have made clear they are sticking by the Frenchman.
Pogba rejoined United in 2016 after a glorious four year spell with Juventus.
He had a mixed second spell at Old Trafford, often finding himself the target of criticism from fans and pundits but capable of putting in world-class performances.
Pogba was at the centre of four Serie A title victories between 2013 and 2016 and also won the Coppa Italia twice.
The Old Lady look far off that type of success this season after a 15 points deduction for alleged financial irregularities left them languishing in mid-table.
A poor Champions League group stage has also seen Juventus drop into the Europa League.
