Pogba has reportedly been picked to play the role of young footballers’ educator and impressed the crew with his spontaneity.

“He amazed everyone with his naturalness and simplicity. He visibly appreciated the experience and said he was ready, why not, to reproduce it further,” a crew member told Le Parisien.

The French paper has also published some pictures of the France international on the set with director Onteniente.

The movie will be released in April 2025.

This past February, the Italian anti-doping tribunal banned Pogba for four years after the Frenchman had failed a doping test on August 2023. The ex-Manchester United midfielder said he’d appeal the decision.
