Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has broken his silence regarding Manchester City's recent guilty verdict. City has been found guilty of 114 out of 115 charges related to financial irregularities, according to the BBC. The club arranged "sham contracts" with commercial partners to disguise secret funding of over £830m, and were found guilty of circumventing Premier League rules.
Pogba, who played 226 times for Manchester City during his second spell, scored 39 goals. He originally joined the club in 2009, spending three years in the youth team before moving to Juventus. Pogba was asked about the verdict at the Singapore Grand Prix and initially stated he had nothing to say. However, he later joked, "I just hope this won't affect the Premier League and that we'll be able to reclaim two titles."
These potential punishments refer to City having titles stripped during the period they were found guilty of cheating.
