OFFICIAL: Paul Pogba is provisionally suspended for anti-doping offense
OFFICIAL: Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has now been provisionally suspended for anti-doping offense
Decision has been officially confirmed by Italy’s National Anti-Doping tribunal statement.
Paul Pogba has tested positive for testosterone for Juventus-Udinese, a match in which he didn't even feature.
It's another negative note for a player who has been bothered by injuries ever since rejoining Juventus from Manchester United a little more than a year ago. He was ruled out of France's run to the World Cup final last year due to a knee injury.
There's also been a police investigation ongoing in France into allegations that Pogba was targeted by extortionists - including by his older brother, Mathias, who has denied any wrongdoing.
It's also another blow to Juventus following a season marred by inquiries into false accounting and irregular reporting of salary payments. The legal cases resulted in the Turin club being removed by UEFA from European competition this season.
