    WHAT HAPPENED?

    The World Cup-winning French midfielder is finally eligible to play professional football again after his doping ban ended on Tuesday. Pogba was originally handed a four-year suspension but saw that cut to 18 months on appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). He will be available to sign for a new club as a free agent after Juventus terminated his contract back in November 2024.
