00:00 Paul Pogba was destined to be one of the best soccer players, but the truth is that his

00:05 career has been on a decline, and now he faces a new obstacle after testing positive for

00:10 doping.

00:12 The French midfielder returned to Juventus where he recently tested positive after the

00:16 match against Udinese in Serie A, the season opener which he spent on the bench.

00:21 It's been revealed exactly which substance is at the center of the problem and where

00:26 it came from.

00:27 According to reports by Gazeta de lo Sport, the drug that appeared in Paul Pogba's system

00:32 is testosterone, and he claimed that it was advised by a doctor friend, not associated

00:37 with the team.

00:38 So what's next for the 30-year-old Juventus man?

00:41 He will have to wait confirmation through a counter-analysis to determine if the substance

00:45 in question is indeed present.

00:47 If confirmed, he could face a maximum suspension of four years.

00:52 While it is true that testosterone is a hormone that can marginally enhance an athlete's

00:56 performance, it is a prohibited substance by FIFA.

01:00 In fact, there have been previous cases where FIFA has not hesitated to impose such lengthy

01:05 sanctions.

01:06 Furthermore, the product Pogba reportedly took was said to have been acquired in the

01:10 United States, according to Italian press reports, and the player claimed to have ingested

01:16 it by mistake.

01:17 He has already explained to the medical staff at Juventus what happened, and now he must

01:21 prove that there was no intent to take it.

01:24 It all comes down to the second test result.

01:26 If it comes back positive, it could lead to the termination of Pogba's contract, which

01:31 was valid until 2026, with $8.6 million received as a base salary and a little over $2 million

01:38 in bonuses.
