Paul Pogba 'steeped in witchcraft' and 'cursed' Kylian Mbappe, claims brother

Paul Pogba's brother, Mathias, has sensationally claimed that the Juventus star is 'steeped in witchcraft' and also suggested he arranged for a curse to be placed on his French international team-mate, Kylian Mbappe.

The two brothers allegedly had a serious falling out earlier this year despite being very close for a number of years, with Mathias regularly present at French national team matches in particular.

Pogba released a statement on Sunday suggesting his brother, in conjunction with a criminal gang, had sought to extort €13m from him, with AFP reporting that the French authorities have launched an investigation.

In response, Mathias promised to reveal a series of 'revelations' around his brother, and on Sunday night, he duly begun.

In a series of Tweets, Mathias commented on the story regarding his brother, as well as revealing further information regarding a curse which had been placed on Mbappe.

He Tweeted: "Paul, you really wanted to shut me up completely to lie and send me to prison, I suspected it now it's true, my version of the facts happens and unlike you, I have enough to prove my words and your lies . I'll tell you again: brother, manipulating people is not good!

"It's not about money: You implicated me in spite of myself, I almost died because of you, you left me in the hole while fleeing and you want to play the innocent, when everything is said people will see that there is no more coward, more traitor and more hypocrite than you on this earth.

"Kylian, now do you understand? I have nothing negative against you, my words are for your good, everything is true and proven. Sorry for my brother, a so-called muslim deep in witchcraft, it's never good to have a hypocrite and a traitor near you!"

More is expected from Mathias as he has laid out a series of statements across his Twitter account for most of the day.
