The bound state of two massive constituent gluons is studied in the potential approach. The relativistic quasi-classical wave equation with the QCD-inspired scalar potential is solved by the quasi-classical method in the complex plane. Glueball masses are calculated with the help of the universal mass formula. The hadron Regge trajectories are given by the complex non-linear function in the whole region of the invariant variable t. The Chew–Frautschi plot of the leading glueball trajectory, α P (t), has the properties of a t-channel Pomeron, which is dual to the glueball states in the s channel. The imaginary part of the Pomeron is also calculated.
