CAS Reduces Pogba’s Suspension, Player To Return In January

Listen to article

World Cup winner Paul Pogba in a surprising turn of events is set to return to action in 2025 after his four-year drug ban was significantly reduced to just 18 months.

The decision allows him to begin training with Juventus in January 2025, with the possibility of participating in official matches by March of the same year.

The Eastern Updates reports that the reduction of Pogba’s ban comes after an appeal process that considered various factors surrounding his case, including his cooperation with the investigation.

Initially suspended for testing positive for testosterone, Pogba’s situation has drawn considerable media attention given his high profile as a World Cup winning player.

Now, the sentence has reportedly been reduced on appeal by CAS, and Pogba could return to training as soon as January.

In other news, Erik ten Hag has pleaded to be given until the end of the season as Manchester United boss after needing a late Harry Maguire equaliser to salvage a 3-3 draw at Porto in the Europa League on Thursday.

Ten Hag was under major pressure before the trip to Portugal after just two wins from United’s first six Premier League fixtures of the season left them languishing in 13th place in the table.

The Red Devils have also drawn their opening two Europa League games to sit 21st in the 36-team table.

“We will get there, don’t judge us in this moment,” said Ten Hag.

“Judge us in the end of the season. We will improve, we have two seasons where we achieved finals. Just wait, we will develop and progress this team.”

Ten Hag has fiercely defended his record after winning the League Cup and FA Cup in his first two seasons in charge at Old Trafford — ending United’s six-year trophy drought in the process.
