Paul Pogba could be banned from football for up to four years for doping

Paul Pogba, a midfield player for Juventus, has been subject to a possible four-year suspension by Italian anti-doping prosecutors following a positive testosterone test. Paul Pogba, a top player for Juventus who tested positive for testosterone, is currently facing a four-year suspension for doping.Pogba chose not to enter into a plea agreement with Italy's anti-doping organization. This implies that the Frenchman may face harsh consequences as the case will be heard by the anti-doping court in his home country. The World Anti-Doping Code stipulates a maximum four-year ban, but in situations where an athlete can demonstrate their doping was inadvertent, the ban may be shortened. This is what the anti-doping prosecutors in Italy have asked for. Pogba could also get a reduced ban if the positive test was a result of contamination or if he provides 'substantial assistance' to help investigators.
