Paul Pogba has asked for counter analysis to be made on his positive doping test.

 


The Juventus midfielder had until this evening to make the request on a sample in which he tested positive for testosterone, and the process will take seven days. If the positive result is upheld, the anti-doping prosecution process will begin.


If he is ultimately convicted of the offence, he can face a ban from football of two years that could even double to four if the substance is specifically listed and the anti-doping organisation find it was taken intentionally.


Juventus are ready to suspend Pogba’s wages if the counter-analysis is positive and proceedings begin, while they can also terminate his contract if he is ultimately banned. Via Sky news

Christmas tragedy.... Governor dies just few days after being sworn into office in an air crash

The governor of Mexico's central Puebla state, Martha Erika Alonso, has died in an air crash, just days after being sworn into office. Her husband, Senator Rafael Moreno Valle, was also killed. Reports from Mexico say the accident happened shortly after the aircraft took off from the city of Puebla. Ms Alonso, 45, became the first female governor of Puebla after hotly contested elections. She was member of the centre-right PAN party. The deaths were confirmed by Mexico's new President, Andrés Manuel López Obrador. In a tweet (in Spanish), President López Obrador expressed "deepest condolences" the relatives of the two politicians. He said an investigation would be launched to establish "the truth" about what caused the crash. En lo personal, mi más profundo pésame a los familiares del senador Rafael Moreno Valle y de su esposa, la gobernadora de Puebla Martha Érika Alonso. Como autoridad, asumo el compromiso de investigar las causas; decir la...

Manchester United's Jose Mourinho told me I had future at club - Andreas Pereira

Image
Manchester United midfielder Andreas Pereira has told ESPN Brasil that Jose Mourinho contacted him regularly last season to let him know that he was going "to have a future" at Old Trafford. The 22-year-old made 13 appearances for the first team during Louis van Gaal's tenure before Mourinho opted to send him on loan to Granada and Valencia the following campaigns in order to secure more regular time in La Liga. Pereira made the most of the opportunity to impress Mourinho, and the United boss showed his faith in the Belgium-born Brazil youth international last week by giving him a starting role in the 2-1 victory over Leicester City. "I am very happy to be back this year here," Pereira said. "After two years out there are new things. I am very happy to be here and very proud. I'm very happy. It is a very happy moment for me. I have to thank the manager and my family. I came here because of him, thanks to opportunity he gave me, and to ...
