Testing positive for testosterone, Paul Pogba is going through a very delicate period.

After multiple physical problems and a serious extra-sporting affair, Paul Pogba finds himself in turmoil again. The French international tested positive for testosterone this Monday. And while waiting for the results of the counter-analysis, other elements have leaked concerning how the Juventus midfielder was allegedly caught red-handed.

La Gazette dello Sport indicated on Tuesday that Pogba’s positive test for testosterone was the result of taking a nutritional supplement purchased in the United States and recommended by a foreign doctor friend at Juve. In other words: Juventus would absolutely not be involved in this situation. Which tends to darken even more the future of Paul Pogba.

Pogba, it doesn’t smell good

If the 2018 world champion risks a 4-year suspension, the hypothesis of seeing Juventus dissociate itself from its situation is gaining ground in recent hours in Italy. This Wednesday, the Gazzetta dello Sport, again, indicates that the management of the Old Lady is considering terminating the contract of the French international, after having already suspended his salary. As a reminder, Pogba’s lease expires in 2026.

The former Mancunian can at least count on the support of his ex-teammates in the selection, and more generally of the France group. Tuesday, after the friendly match in Germany, Didier Deschamps and several players, including Kingsley Coman and former French international Adil Rami, made positive comments about Pogba.
