Declared positive for the doping substance DHEA after the match against Udinese at the very start of the season, Paul Pogba (30 years old) is still awaiting official sanction. The anti-doping prosecution has also called for a four-year suspension for the former Manchester United player, which would practically mark the end of his career, while Juventus have already stopped paying his salary.
If he wants to avoid a very heavy punishment, the French international will have to demonstrate that he ingested this substance unintentionally during his judgment. Which would drastically reduce this suspension. And according to several Italian media, the meeting is set for January 18 at 2:30 p.m. This is, in fact, the date scheduled for Paul Pogba’s trial before the National Anti-Doping Tribunal, at the Stadio Olimpico.
