Four year ban imposed on famous French footballer

Famous French footballer Paul Pogba has been banned for four years after testing positive for dope.

According to media reports, an Italian court has imposed a four-year ban on Pogba, the famous midfielder of France and Italian club Juventus.

There was a request from doping prosecutors against the footballer, who was part of the 2018 FIFA World Cup winning team, and was banned for doping positive.
