Italian prosecutors 'want Paul Pogba to be banned for FOUR YEARS after failing a drugs test', in move that could spell the end of the former Man United star's career

Italian prosecutors are reportedly pushing for former Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba to be hit with a four-year ban for failing a drugs test earlier this year.

Pogba, who now plays for Serie A giants Juventus after ending his six-year stay at United last summer, has been provisionally suspended after testing positive for the banned substance DHEA following his side's win against Udinese on August 20.

Pogba's B-sample also came back positive for the substance which naturally boosts testosterone production, and he is now waiting to find out the sanction that will be handed down.
