Former Man Utd Pogba to be paid €2,000 a month for doping ban

The problems never end for Paul Pogba. The player, who has been sidelined from Juventus after testing positive for doping, is preparing for the most difficult months of his career, and not just in sporting terms, but also financially.

As reported by 'GOAL', the club has opted to exercise the right to reduce the player's salary to the minimum wage (around 2,000 euros per month), according to the agreement between the two sides in such cases. It should be remembered that the Frenchman was one of the highest paid players in the squad.

The substance allegedly used by the midfielder is testosterone, but counter-analysis has shown that it is actually Dhea, a compound found in many drugs that can alter test results.

In addition, the media also suggests that Juventus will maintain this situation until the trial is fully resolved. However, if he is finally sanctioned, Juventus could terminate his contract, as well as seek damages from the player.
