Paul Pogba gets a new return date to football following doping scandal

One of the most famous football players in the world, Paul Pogba, is no stranger to the highs and lows that comes with having a professional athlete’s career. Pogba’s brilliance has long been recognized, as seen by his World Cup victory with France and his several domestic championships at Juventus and Manchester United.

The midfield maestro did, however, recently confront a significant obstacle when his career was allegedly jeopardised by a doping scandal, where after testing positive for DHEA, a drug that is prohibited and naturally elevates testosterone levels, Pogba was placed on temporary suspension in September 2023 by a tribunal of Italy’s national anti-doping organisation (NADO Italia).
