The Frenchman faces a ban of up to 4 years after failed doping test

Paul Pogba has remained optimistic despite difficult times as he awaits a potential 4-year ban following his positive test on prohibited substances.

The 30-year-old was found guilty of using DHEA, which boosts the level of testosterone after a Serie A fixture against Udinese on August 20, in which he did not play.

Pogba was provisionally suspended by Italy’s national anti-doping tribunal and could face a sporting trial which would determine any potential punishment.

But his agent Rafaela Pimenta shared that Pogba is fully determined to make a return to the pitch.

“He’s optimistic and he’s a hard worker, he’s preparing and when it’s possible he’s ready.” she said.

At present, Pogba is unable to train with the Juventus squad. He is instead working on a personal programme  with his personal trainer.
