In December, Sports Brief reported on how Pogba courted controversy after he was spotted in the mountains whilst he was supposed to be recovering from injury.

The World Cup winner was spotted enjoying himself along the ski slopes, a sight that angered sections of Juventus fans.

It is not certain whether he was actually engaging in skiing or snowboarding, but the fact that he was outside in an area known for the extreme sport left fans questioning his commitment to football.
