In football: France star Paul Pogba has been given a four-year ban from football by Italy’s anti-doping tribunal after testing positive for testosterone last August, his club Juventus said yesterday. Pogba announced he would appeal the ruling, “When I am free of legal restrictions the full story will become clear, but I have never knowingly or deliberately taken any supplements that violate anti-doping regulations. I will appeal this before the Court of Arbitration for Sport.” The ban means Pogba will not be able to play again until the 2027/28 season, by which time he will be 34. In Combat SportsBiz: US$614Million is the revenue reported by TKO Group Holdings in its first full quarter after their US$21Billion merger of the UFC and WWE.
