In 2023, Paul Pogba was banned due to a doping violation and missed several years because of it, but he has now returned and plays for Monaco. He revealed how many people distanced themselves from him during that period.
Details: Pogba told PurelyFootball that his father had warned him that once he had big money, many people would be around him, but in times of trouble, they would turn away. That’s exactly what happened during his suspension.
Quote: “When I received my first big paycheck at Manchester United, I was so happy that I went to my father, and he told me: ‘Son, don’t waste your money. When the party ends, the guests will leave, and everything else will remain behind.’
I didn’t understand these words until I got into trouble and realized that many friends who used to be constantly around no longer cared about me. The only people I have now are my closest family,” Pogba said.
Reminder: The 32-year-old midfielder recently shared a video on Instagram capturing an emotional moment as he came on as a substitute in a Ligue 1 match.
