Paul Pogba begins new career as ex-Man Utd star's wife helps launch of clothing line ahead of return from doping ban with Monaco

Per The Sun, Pogba has launched his own clothing range and has enlisted the help of his wife for the launch. The brand is named 'Pogba MDXCIII' and the Instagram page for the brand was launched at the weekend. Zulay, the midfielder's wife, has been seen modelling some of the range, which includes hats, t-shirts, tracksuits and jackets. 

The brand's website reads: "From the streets of Lagny-sur-Marne to the world’s biggest stages, Paul Pogba’s journey is talent, determination, and flair in motion. He rose through Manchester United’s academy, conquered Europe with Juventus, and lifted the FIFA World Cup with France. His charisma is undeniable, but his creativity goes beyond the pitch. POGBA is his expression of individuality: a fusion of sport, style, and luxury. Today, alongside his family in Monaco, he continues to inspire in football and in fashion with a life led by passion and authenticity."

A World Cup winner, Pogba will be hoping he can use his name to make a fortune off his new designs as fans prepare to take a look at each drop of fresh garments.

Pogba's fashion range has a studio in Miami and charges in excess of £200 for some of the clothing items, but they claim the brand "represents a bold and modern version of luxury".

They add: "Founded by Paul Pogba and his partner Jonathan, POGBA MDXCIII represents a bold and modern vision of luxury. More than a brand it’s a statement of style: a strong, instantly recognizable identity rooted in culture, movement, and victory.

"From our studio in Miami, every creation is crafted as an exceptional piece noble fabrics, precise cuts, flawless finishes. We work with the finest artisans and manufacturers to bring to life garments that embody power, elegance, and timeless design.

"Our ambition is simple yet immense: to redefine the codes of luxury sport, blending excellence, authenticity, and emotion.

"POGBA stands for the perfect balance between style and performance."

Pogba joined Monaco officially in June but has yet to play for the first time since his doping ban was reduced to 18 months from four years by the Court of Arbitration for Sport. He was poised to make his debut at the weekend but suffered a small fitness issue, and his manager, Sebastien Pocognoli, has insisted that the midfielder is "smiling". 

He told reporters: "Paul is training but not fully. I think the process for Paul is a process to make everything step by step. [On Monday] he joined with the group for the first time under my coaching.

"He was smiling, he was enjoying and interacting with the players. For me, this is the first step and this step can take days, can take two to three weeks and then we can build on this through performance and the consistency. So, yeah, that is the first step and here we are. That is the situation, but I am very pleased, for sure, to see him on the pitch."

Monaco face Premier League opposition in the Champions League on Wednesday when they take on Tottenham at the Stade Louis II. It is Pocognoli's first fixture in charge of the club, and they will have to win without Pogba. He will likely be donning some of his own designer clothes in the stands. 

While he will not be playing this week, he may well be able to make his return when Monaco face Toulouse in the league this weekend. They are currently seventh in Ligue 1.
