Liverpool legend Graeme Souness has strongly criticized Paul Pogba following the Juventus midfielder’s four-year ban for doping.
Souness maintained that Pogba lacks honesty, emphasizing that his previous observations about the 30-year-old being ‘lazy’ were accurate.
Pogba recently received a four-year ban from football due to a failed drugs test, and he is currently appealing the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), expressing shock and heartbreak over the situation.

”I criticized Paul Pogba often during his career, and some people seemed to take amusement from it,” said Souness in an interview with the Daily Mail.
“But it was only sadness that I felt this week when I learned that he has been banned from football for four years for a doping offence.
“For me, there really was never any doubt about Pogba’s ability. What I saw in him was a player with great technical ability and physique who had the potential to be one of the best midfield players our sport had ever known.
“It was his lack of honesty and poor effort levels which always frustrated me. Frankly, he was lazy.”
Souness concluded, “He is 30 years old, and we won’t see him at an elite level again. A desperately sad ending to the career of someone who had the world at his feet and might still have been talked about, 20, 30, or 40 years from now.”
