Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Fans react as Paul Pogba is currently earning just €42,000-a-year from his €8m-a-year contract.
The downfall of the French Maestro Paul Pogba
Juventus re-signed the Frenchmen in July 2022 on a four-year deal after the player ran down his contract at Manchester United and left as a free agent. However, Pogba’s return to Turin has been accompanied by persistent injuries which also saw him miss the last year’s World Cup in Qatar.
Speaking at the time of the initial suspension, Pagba’s agent Rafael Pimenta said, “What is certain is that Paul Pogba never wanted to break a rule.” The Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri said that he was not aware of the result of the B sample test, “I didn’t know, I found out now,” he said in a press conference before Saturday’s home game against Torino. “Let’s wait … Humanly, I feel sorry for Paul.”
From then until today, a lot of water has flowed into the furrow. All that the French midfielder had conquered in his career and in his personal life seems to be destroyed one after the other.
Things have gotten worse since September when he tested positive for banned substances that he should not have taken before the away match against Udinese.
Paul Pogba a few years ago was one of the best midfielders in the world, earning big bucks in the process.
When he was at Juventus, he could do everything with or without the ball at his feet before his record transfer to Manchester United in the summer of 2016.
He showed flashes of his brilliance at United but never really set the stage a light as was expected in his six years at Old Trafford. This means that he is only receiving €42,000 a year on his €8m-a-year contract, which is just 5% of his yearly salary.
The €2,000-a-month salary is based on the rule that suspended players must receive the minimum wage in the country. However, this is a minuscule salary in comparison to the 667,000 euros per month that he used to receive before his suspension.
