For more than a year, Paul Pogba has been on a rollercoaster of life events. The Frenchman has been at the center of a doping scandal, while the court case with his own brother Mathias over alleged extortion is still ongoing. After ending his collaboration with Juventus, Paul is working on finding a new club and returning to the pitch. In recent days, Olympique Marseille and Manchester City were mentioned as potential clubs for the former French international. Alongside them, a bizarre story about a potential move to Brazilian club Corinthians has spread across the globe. The word “bizarre” here isn’t because of faraway Brazil—there is money and high-quality football there—but because of the way the 31-year-old has been linked to the giant club from São Paulo.Pogba’s blackmailers to be trailed on TuesdaySpecifically, the Brazilian escort agency Fatal Model, an agency providing “business escort” services, offered Corinthians to cover part of Pogba’s salary through a sponsorship deal with the club. No, this is not a joke. The Corinthians marketing team publicly responded to the offer: “We received an email from the company Fatal Model, but there are no negotiations currently underway. The club thanks the agency for its interest.” Fatal Model took the approach of “if it works, it works,” while Corinthians responded politely, as befits a giant. The seven-time Brazilian champion and 2012 South American champion does not need that kind of marketing.##NAJAVA_MECA_8580047##
