On Thursday, Italy’s sports prosecutors sought a four-year ban for Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba amidst doping allegations.

The former world champion opted not to make a plea bargain with Italy’s anti-doping agency, meaning the case will be tried before the country’s anti-doping court.

Pogba’s positive test was announced earlier this year in September, after an exam was carried out after Juventus’ game at Udinese on August 20. The France International did not play in the Serie A match but was on Juve’s bench.

The midfielder asked for counter-analysis to be made on his positive doping test but those results also returned a positive result.
