The France World Champion from 2018 Paul Pogba appeared in Paris at the premiere of the movie "The Four Zeros" of Fabien Onteniente, in which he participated as an actor. He explained how he came to his new role in life.

"The director and I have mutual friends. He wanted a famous personality for his film. He asked me, I had free time and so. It happened by accident. Maybe if I played football he wouldn't think of me. But I'm an actor in life too. You could say I'm a showman, I've always been different. In fact, we are all like that in our own way. I've seen parts of movies with Cantona, but not all, or at least I don't remember. But he has charisma, that's Cantona," Pogba told the "Ekip" newspaper, quoted by BTA.

"Football is something that was taken away from me. He's not done for me. This is the piece of cherry ball that was taken from me before I ate it, even though I didn't do anything. I'm ambitious, I can't wait to get back on the field. This is my workplace,'' said Paul Pogba, whose punishment for positive doping tests was reduced from 4 years to 18 months.

He is expected to be back on the field at the end of November for a charity match and will be reinstated in March. Olympique Marseille are already rumored to be negotiating with the former French international.
