In the turmoil since his positive test, Paul Pogba has seen his agent Rafaela Pimenta come to his defense strongly.

Paul Pogba has been living a new nightmare since September 11 and the announcement of his positive test for testosterone on the occasion of the 1time day of Serie A. After being the victim of an extortion attempt in which his own brother seems to be involved and then having missed the World Cup last year due to a knee injury, the French midfielder can expect a heavy penalty.

While awaiting the decision of the authorities, Paul Pogba saw Juventus reduce his salary drastically. While he earned around 8 million euros per year, he now has to make do with the minimum salary in Serie A, namely 42,500 euros per year, or less than 2,000 euros per month. And the worst is undoubtedly yet to come since his contract could be terminated by the Old Lady when the sanction is pronounced.

According to the Italian press, the French world champion, who risks up to four years of suspension, would negotiate an agreement with the authorities providing for two years of suspension. But given the words of his agent, the situation seems different since Rafael Pimenta explained that he was considering appealing before even knowing the sanction. “We are working on it”she told the Guardian, adding: “I still have hope. »

The Italian lawyer, who recovered Mino Raiola’s player portfolio, in any case paid tribute to the former Le Havre player. “I will always be there for Paul. He is a part of my life and I am grateful for the way he has treated me and always respected us. He’s a wonderful person who has evolved a lot, because I met him when he was a kid, she continued. He is now the father of three children. He’s changed a lot and he’ll grow even more… What I like about Paul is that every time something negative happens, he does his best to learn from it. »
