Paul Pogba’s brother bags prison sentence over extortion
Mathias Pogba, brother to France midfielder, Paul Pogba, has been sentenced to three years in prison over extortion.
He was sentenced on Thursday by a Paris court, and had also been suspended for two years.
Mathias Pogba will however, be able to serve his one-year sentence with an electronic bracelet rather than behind bars.
The court also fined Pogba’s brother 20,000 euros for participating in the attempted extortion of 13 million euros ($13.5 million) from Pogba in 2022, and for putting pressure on the player, his family and his business contacts to obtain the payment.
