The verdict is in.
He's heavy.
Testing positive for testosterone in August 2023, Paul Pogba was sentenced to four years of suspension by the Italian anti-doping court.
This is the maximum penalty incurred.
The entourage of the 30-year-old world champion, 31 on March 15, confirmed to Le
Figaro
its intention to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), after what the player describes as an
“incorrect verdict”
.
Pogba speaks via a message on Instagram in which he pleads his good faith:
“I am sad, shocked and heartbroken that everything I built during my career as a professional player has been taken away from me.
When I am freed from legal restrictions, the whole story will become clear, but I have never knowingly or deliberately taken any supplements that would violate anti-doping regulations
,” insists the Juve player, under contract until 2026.
