Paul Pogba Banned From Football For 4 Years After Failed Drug Test
Eko Hot Blog reports that Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has been handed a stunning 4-year ban from football after failing a drug test, according to breaking reports.
The ban has also been confirmed by renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano on social media.
His post reads “BREAKING: Paul Pogba has been banned from football for four years due to doping”
The 29-year-old French international is said to have failed a drug test at some point last year while he was still playing for Manchester United in the English Premier League.
The banned substance involved has not been officially confirmed yet.
This news comes as a massive blow for Pogba, who recently re-joined Juventus on a free transfer after his Manchester United contract expired earlier this summer.
He originally moved from Juventus to United in 2016 for a then-record transfer fee of £89 million.
If the 4-year ban is upheld, it could spell the premature end of the World Cup winner’s club and international playing career.
The report has sent shockwaves through the football world as one of the sport’s biggest superstars now faces the possibility of a multi-year ban that may ultimately force him into early retirement.
The stunning development continues Pogba’s tumultuous last 12 months, which has seen him limited by injuries and plagued by controversy and criticism over his commitment to Manchester United prior to his departure.
This reported ban represents Pogba’s biggest challenge yet as he looks to save his playing career.
