Massimo Allegri, Juventus coach, has only said good things about Paul Pogba while the French player has just been suspended for 4 years.
These words will perhaps comfort Paul Pogba a little more. Massimiliano Allegri spoke for the first time about the difficult situation his French midfielder finds himself in. “ I wrote him a message the day before yesterday, on a human level, I am really sorry and from a footballing point of view, football loses an extraordinary player » declared the Juventus coach on Saturday at a press conference.
Two days after the 4-year suspension imposed by the Italian anti-doping court on Paul Pogba, the Italian coach of the Bianconeri did not want to comment on the current procedure. He preferred to highlight the qualities of the 2018 world champion, now 30 years old: “ I had the chance to work with him, to coach him and players like that are hard to find. Humanly, I’m really sorry, because among other things, Paul is a very good boy. »
The hope of the Court of Arbitration for Sport
When the suspension was announced, Paul Pogba reacted on Instagram: “ I am sad, shocked and heartbroken. Everything I built during my professional gaming career was taken away from me. When I am free from legal restrictions, the whole story will be clear, but I have never knowingly or deliberately taken any supplements that violate anti-doping rules. »
Paul Pogba and his advisers have decided to bring the case before the Court of Arbitration for Sport, hoping that this court will review downwards the decision of the Italian body.
