The second sample taken from Paul Pogba showed that he tested positive for testosterone. He risks a heavy suspension.
Things are clearly not ready to get better for Paul Pogba. Between repeated injuries since his return to the Juventus Turin and a legal case with his brothers, the French international took a new blow by testing positive for testosterone on September 11 after a match against Udinese in which he did not come on.
the second positive sample
This Friday, the reports of the counter-analysis, carried out with a second sample, were published and confirmed that Paul Pogba tested positive for testosterone, as indicated by the Italian press. The French international now has seven days to defend himself. Otherwise, he could be sentenced to two to four years of suspension from all football-related activities. For her part, the Old Lady could terminate her contract, with which the 30-year-old earns around 10 million euros per year.
The main argument in defense of the 2018 world champion could be that testosterone is not intended to improve sports performance but is generally used in the world of physical culture.
