Doping: Pogba risks four-year ban after second positive test Juventus and France midfielder Paul Pogba’s ‘B’ sample has confirmed the presence of testosterone, a source close to the case told AFP on Friday. The 30-year-old former Manchester United player, a World Cup winner in 2018, faces a ban of up to four years. The original test by the Italian anti-doping agency (Nado) showed the presence of testosterone metabolites. On Friday, Pogba learned that the analysis of his B sample, carried out on the previous day, had produced the same result. The player’s entourage declined to comment.

The ban could even be limited to a few months if the use of the substance took place “out of competition and is not related to his level of performance”. Pogba’s representatives said last month that the testosterone came from a food supplement prescribed by a doctor he ...
