What happened

Yesterday, Italia’s national national anti-doping tribunal (Nado) said Pogba was tested after Juve’s 3-0 win at Udinese on 20 August.

The 30-year-old France international, an unused substitute, was randomly selected for post-match drug testing.

If found guilty of doping, the former Man United star could face a four-year ban, but it’s not the end, as Bianconeri will not wish to keep a guilty player.

Juventus said in a statement: “Juventus Football Club announces that today, 11 September 2023, the footballer Paul Labile Pogba received a precautionary suspension order from the National Anti-Doping Tribunal following the results of tests carried out on 20 August 2023.

“The club reserves the right to consider the next procedural steps.”

Sad years for Pogba

Pogba has been through probably two of the worst years of his life, going from being kidnapped to being in danger of being banned from playing football for years.

In March 2022, a month before he played his final game for United, he was allegedly kidnapped near Paris by masked men bearing M16 assault rifles.

They demanded €13m (£11m) in protection money – €1m for each year of his career – and Pogba seemingly tried to pay, only to be blocked by his bank. Four days earlier, Pogba was the victim of a burglary while his two young children were in the house.

That summer, his elder brother Mathias released a video in which he accused Pogba of having employed a marabout, a West African holy man called Ibrahim who charged €100 an hour, to place a curse on Kylian Mbappé. Pogba later acknowledged he had consulted a marabout, but only for help with his continual injuries.

“Money changes people,” Pogba said. “It can break up a family. It can create a war.”
