A high-profile trial is currently underway in Paris, involving six individuals accused of extorting French soccer star Paul Pogba. The defendants, including Pogba’s sibling Mathias, face allegations of orchestrating a kidnapping plot and coercing Pogba into paying a substantial sum of €13 million.
The case has cast a shadow over Pogba’s already tumultuous career, marked by a series of setbacks including injuries, a doping suspension, and turmoil at his club. Pogba has alleged that childhood acquaintances turned against him, while his brother Mathias has vehemently denied any involvement in the alleged extortion scheme.
