Paul Pogba has revealed what he got up to while serving a doping ban, with the World Cup winner moving his family to Dubai for six months.

The France international, who was cleared to resume his career in March 2025, is still waiting on his return to competitive action after heading back to his homeland and signing a two-year contract with Ligue 1 outfit Monaco.
Ex-Manchester United midfielder Pogba has not made an appearance of any kind since September 2023.
It was at that point that he was stung with an initial four-year suspension for breaching doping regulations.
That ban was eventually reduced to 18 months on appeal, with Pogba expected to make an immediate return to the professional ranks.
He did, however, spend several weeks without a club – despite being linked with teams across Europe, in MLS and the Saudi Pro League.
Monaco put a deal in place during the summer of 2025, but Pogba is yet to make his debut for them.
That is because he is still working his way towards full match sharpness after spending so long out of action.
Pogba relocated family to the Middle East
In a bid to fill time and escape the spotlight, Pogba has revealed that he briefly relocated to Dubai alongside wife Zulay and their children.
He told A-Star Barbers: “Yeah, I was there six months. Amazing for family.
“Seriously, I was happy there. The kids were happy. Seriously, I enjoyed it.”

The 32-year-old is desperate to be involved and may not have given up on staging a late bid to make France’s squad for the 2026 World Cup.
