Juventus consider legal action against Pogba

Juventus have sent Paul Pogba a formal letter after his failed doping test was confirmed.

Pogba has been informed by Juve that his salary will be reduced to around €2,000-a-week as they wait on a hearing regarding the length of the player's suspension, says Tuttosport.

For any other decisions, Juventus will wait on the steps of the player and his entourage, with the first being identified on Friday: by that date Pogba will have to decide whether to ask the anti-doping prosecutor to be heard or whether to file his defense briefs.

Justice will then take its course, with the possibility of reaching the TAS of Lausanne. Then Juventus will consider what to do. Tuttosport says it cannot be ruled out that Juventus club will sue the player for technical damages.
