Paul Pogba faces FOUR-YEAR ban after positive doping test with Juventus ‘ready to rip up contract’
Показать описание
PAUL POGBA faces a four-year ban after testing positive for a 'B' sample.
And Juventus are reportedly ready to rip up his £130,000-a-week contract as a result.
The Frenchman, 30, was provisionally suspended after failing a drugs test last month.
And a backup 'B' sample given by Pogba has come back positive as well.
Reports in Italy also claim Pogba could now have his £130k-a-week Juve contract ripped up.
Traces of testosterone were found in Pogba's system following Juventus' opening day win over Udinese.
The former Man United star was an unused sub in the game but was hauled in by testers.
Pogba was automatically handed a provisional ban by Italian anti-doping chiefs.
And he was given three days to provide a secondary 'B' sample for counter-analysis.
That has now come back positive too.
Although it is understood to have contained traces of a different substance, but not testosterone.
Pogba will now be hauled in for questioning by an anti-doping tribunal.
If found guilty, he faces a two-year ban.
But if he is guilty of doping intentionally, that could double in length to four years.
Pogba has a week to prepare his defence, and is expected to face a tribunal within two to four weeks.
His second spell at Juventus also hangs in the balance, with the Italians considering their next steps.
Terminating Pogba's contract is one option, according to reports in Italy.
This is a developing story...
