Paul Pogba faces a four-year ban following a doping scandal, raising doubts about his football career after the recent ruling by authorities.
As a consequence of failed doping tests, Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has received a four-year ban from football according to LaRepubblica casting uncertainty over the future of the Frenchman’s football career.
Paul Pogba, the World Cup winner, recorded an initial positive test on September 11, 2023, revealing elevated levels of testosterone in his system. Following this, Pogba was sidelined, and he hasn’t played for the Bianconeri since then.
This development paints a bleak picture for Pogba’s career, with doping allegations overshadowing him as he nears his milestone birthday on 15 March.
The prosecution remained unconvinced by the defense’s argument of accidental substance intake, a stance that played a pivotal role in the legal proceedings against Pogba.
Despite his legal team rejecting any plea deals and strongly asserting his innocence, the decision is a substantial setback, not only for Pogba but also for Juventus, losing a key player to such a scandal. Pogba’s absence is bound to leave a void on the field for the team.
