Brother of ex-Juventus star Pogba out of jail & back on pitch with 2-goal blast

  /  autty

After being sentenced to three years in prison, with two years suspended, for extortion of his brother Paul Pogba in December, Mathias Pogba made a surprising return to action this weekend in Belgium.

The 34-year-old striker, who played in the past for Pescara, Wrexham and Murcia, shone for SKN Sint-Niklaas, scoring two crucial goals in a 4-3 derby victory for his side, with goals coming in the 82nd and 90th minutes.

Mathias has already served part of his sentence in pre-trial detention and now wears an electronic bracelet.

Younger brother Paul, meanwhile, is now working on his fitness ahead of returning to football after serving an 18-month doping ban.
