I Was Banned in 2023... And Still Made UCL Before Man United" – Pogba Throws Subtle Jab

Turin, Italy - Paul Pogba, never one to shy away from headlines, has lit up football Twitter again with a subtle-but-savage comment aimed at his former club.

In a recent exchange with fans, the embattled midfielder joked:

"I was banned in 2023 and still made it to the Champions League before Manchester United."

A direct shot? Maybe. A fact? Absolutely.

After testing positive for doping and being banned from professional football, many thought Pogba’s career was done. But Juventus, through grit and quiet rebuild, secured a Champions League slot for the 2024/25 season.

Meanwhile, Manchester United despite billions in transfers and a rotating carousel of managers will be watching from home.

·        Pogba left United in 2022 amid criticism over form and fitness.

·        United’s post-Pogba era has been riddled with inconsistency.

·        Juventus, even without Pogba on the pitch, powered through Serie A.

Fans are divided:

·        Some say Pogba is “just stating facts.”

·        Others think he’s burning bridges with classless shade.

But one thing’s clear: Pogba hasn’t lost his touch… off the pitch.
