What did Mathias Pogba say in his video?
The Frenchman Paul Pogba is once again the center of attention in France, but not for being a protagonist on the field, but for some circumstances that affect him from the outside. Last Sunday, the midfielder denounced, through a statement signed by his lawyers, that he received "threats" and "attempts of extortion by organized gang"; and hours later, Mathias, his brother, responded with a surprising revelation: the now Juventus player would have resorted to witchcraft to injure Kylian Mbappé.
"Kylian, do you understand now? I have nothing negative against you, my words are for your own good, everything is true and proven. I'm sorry for this brother, a supposed Muslim immersed in witchcraft. It's never good to have a hypocrite and a traitor close to you," Mathias Pogba wrote on his Twitter account, causing controversy.
Let's remember that Paul Pogba announced the alleged harassment a day after the circulation on social media of a video in which his older brother promised "great revelations". Precisely, it has been confirmed that there is an ongoing investigation in France entrusted to the services of the central directorate of the judicial police (DCPJ).
"Mathias Pogba's recent statements on social media are unfortunately not a surprise. They add to threats and attempts of extortion by organized gang against Paul Pogba," explained the lawyers of the French international midfielder, Yeo Moriba (both their mother) and the player's agent, Rafaela Pimenta.

In a video broadcast on social media in four languages (French, Italian, English, and Spanish) last Saturday, Mathias Pogba announced "great revelations about his brother Paul and his agent Rafaela Pimenta", who has just taken over the recently deceased Mino Raiola's company.
The professional footballer also stated that "the world of football needs to know some things to decide with knowledge if Paul Pogba really deserves admiration, respect, his place in the French national team, if he is a trustworthy person".
"I hope you are not deceived by an attempt to manipulate the media and authorities. When you are famous, the world is with you, the authorities pay more attention to you. But you are not above Justice. The police are not your lackeys," he said emphatically.
"I believe that what I have to say may be of interest to many people. Furthermore, I will also tell you things about Kylian Mbappé, the star of world football, and there will be evidence and many testimonies to confirm my words. It is likely that all this will be explosive and cause a lot of noise. I also assume that you have many questions and wonder about the reasons for my actions. Everything will be known in due time," he concluded to finally reveal this Sunday what was happening regarding the PSG striker.
