The savings at the economic level for Juventus would be considerable

A case everyone would gladly have done without. After a troubled season, Pogba seemed ready to prove he was still a champion and wanted to do so with the Juventus jersey. Instead, è came the suspension for doping.

A real punch in the gut for Pogba, who, it seems, would be the only one, really, responsible for the situation, having taken supplements without having the okay of Juventus doctors. If that is the case, it would be a gross mistake that will cost him a lot financially and, above all, in his career.

Already, the first consequences of his incautious gesture are tangible. First and foremost, Juventus, upon learning of the Frenchman’s suspension, suspended the payment of his (rich) salary to him. A decision allowed by the’collective agreement signed by the League and Assocalciatori. Thought is also being given to the near future. Should Pogba’s positivity be confirmed, Juventus could also decide to terminate the contract with the Frenchman. Such a move would result in huge savings in economic terms for the club’s coffers. Pogba collects more than 10 million euros per season (including bonuses) and has an agreement with the Old Lady until June 2026.
