Paul Pogba has four-year doping ban reduced to 18 months after successful appeal: ‘Finally, the nightmare is over’

New York Times  

Paul Pogba says his “nightmare is over” and he “cannot wait to get back on the pitch” after his four-year ban for failing an anti-doping test was reduced to 18 months. The decision after an appeal at the Court of Arbitration for Sport means Pogba will be allowed to resume training with Juventus in January, having already served 13 months of the ban. “The CAS Panel based its decision on the evidence and legal arguments made that Mr Pogba’s ingestion of DHEA, the substance for which he tested positive, was not intentional and was the result of erroneously taking a supplement prescribed to him by a medical doctor in Florida,” the statement read, “after Mr Pogba had been given assurances that the medical doctor, who had claimed to treat several high-level US and international athletes, was knowledgeable and would be mindful of Mr Pogba’s anti-doping obligations under the World Anti-Doping Code. “Mr Pogba sought a sanction of only 12 months in recognition of the presence of some fault on his part.” Pogba was suspended in February 2024 after testosterone not produced by the body was detected in a test on August 20, 2023, according to the Italian anti-doping agency.
