Rabiot said at his France media conference: “Pogba? It’s a shame what’s happening.

“Obviously we’re in contact, we talk regularly. He’s still in Turin. I know he was waiting to know the exact reasons for the suspension so he could appeal.

“I hope the sanction will be reduced, because from what Paul told me, taking 4 years for this is a bit excessive.

“I hope they review the sanction.”
