These long moments without competition, this life away from the pitch… Each day that passes now takes Paul Pogba away from this bland daily life that the 31-year-old footballer has been going through since September 3, 2023, the date of his last official match at Empoli before being controlled positive for dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Initially suspended for four years for doping, the French international with 91 caps saw his sanction reduced to eighteen months in October and will be able to resume the course of his career on March 11, 2025. “Everything is much clearer for him” , sums up an intimate.
The date is on the agenda of the midfielder, who is described as “impatient” to open a new chapter and eager to “make up for lost time” in order to get back in the saddle after this long period of inactivity. It remains to be known the identity of the club which will bet on “La Pioche” after this parenthesis of a year and a half without playing.
