Juventus News: Paul Pogba’s Brother Mathias Is Under Police Custody With 3 Others Following the Blackmail Case
The 29-year-old French midfielder has alleged his brother Mathias in a “group-organised extortion attempt” against him.
Mathias Pogba represented Guinea at the international level. He is now a free agent after being released by Belfort in April.
In that video, Mathias told alleged that his brother asked a witch doctor to cast a spell on PSG superstar Mbappe. He also told that more revelations were to come.
In response, Mbappe put his trust in his teammate rather than his blackmailer brother. The French superstar said of Pogba: “It is his word against the word of his brother, I am going to believe my teammate. It’s not a time to put more onto him. I’m pretty detached from it all.”
A statement also came from Pogba’s lawyers, his mother, Yeo, and agent Rafaela Pimenta. They responded that the videos “are no surprise” and denied that there was a video of Paul ordering a witch doctor to cast a spell.
The former Manchester midfielder claimed that he became the victim of an £11 million alleged blackmailing plot against him by his own brother and some of his childhood friends.
The midfielder also revealed that the blackmailers requested the sum for “protection services” stretching back 13 years.
French police confirmed that they opened an investigation against Mathias and the alleged “group-organised” crime.
The gang was alleged to have demanded £2.6million in cash on the spot, but Paul was not allowed to withdraw more than £85k in cash from his account. Paul Pogba opened a criminal complaint through his lawyers when the group started threatening more for money.
Though Pogba did not shine at Man Utd, he won the 2018 World Cup with his national team. he has re-joined Juventus on a free transfer. The midfielder is yet to play for his club, as he suffered a knee injury in pre-season. Paul Pogba’s life is not running smoothly as his Qatar World Cup dream is in jeopardy.
