Paul Pogba's lawyers will reportedly try to get his potential four-year ban reduced to just two years during a hearing that is set to take place in January.

On Thursday, Italian prosecutors reportedly pushed for former Manchester United midfielder Pogba to be hit with a four-year ban for failing a drugs test earlier this year.

Pogba, who joined 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.
