Mathias Pogba has been charged and taken into custody for allegedly attempting to extort money from his brother, Paul Pogba, the French midfielder who plays for Juventus.

Following the filing of a complaint by Paul Pogba, French prosecutors initiated a judicial investigation upon his claims of being targeted by an organized gang seeking 13 million euros in an extortion plot. This complaint was lodged with Turin prosecutors on 16th July.

A World Cup winner with France in 2018, Paul Pogba recently joined Juventus on a free transfer after departing from Manchester United.

Additionally, four other individuals are under formal investigation for extortion and criminal association, according to judicial sources cited by news agencies Reuters and Agence France-Presse.

Mathias Pogba’s lawyer, Yassine Bouzrou, has stated that his client maintains his innocence and intends to contest the charges.

In a video posted online last month, the 32-year-old Mathias Pogba hinted at forthcoming “revelations” regarding his 29-year-old brother, who then refuted Mathias’s claims that he had used voodoo on fellow French teammate Kylian Mbappe.
