- Mathias was found guilty of pressuring Paul Pogba, his family, and business contacts
A Paris court on Thursday sentenced Mathias Pogba, the brother of France midfielder Paul Pogba, to three years in prison, with two years suspended, after he was convicted in a high-profile extortion case.
Mathias will serve one year of his sentence under house arrest, wearing an electronic bracelet, instead of being incarcerated.
The court also imposed a fine of 20,000 euros on Pogba for his role in attempting to extort 13 million euros ($13.5 million) from his brother in 2022.
He was found guilty of pressuring Paul Pogba, his family, and business contacts to secure the payment.
