Pogba paid witch doctor £3.5m to neutralise Mbappe – Brother alleges

The midfielder has been charged with paying at least €4 million (£3.5 million) to a witch doctor who ‘neutralized’ Kylian Mbappe during Manchester United’s Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain in 2019. This accusation comes from Mathias, the brother of Juventus star Paul Pogba.

Since his suspected involvement in the Pogba blackmail conspiracy, Mathias has been detained in Paris and has been since he was taken into custody there a few weeks ago.

Mathias Pogba, 37, has been charged with “extortion in an organized gang” and “membership in a criminal association with the intent to prepare a crime,” however he has denied any involvement in the attempted blackmail.

On Friday, September 23, a number of Mathias’ pre-recorded video messages appeared online.

In one of the video messages, Mathias charged Pogba with hiring a witch doctor to cast a spell on Mbappe, the top player for Paris Saint-Germain, in advance of United’s 2019 Champions League match against PSG.

Manchester United lost the first leg 2-0 at Old Trafford, and Pogba was sent off during the match. However, Manchester United mounted an incredible comeback in the second leg in Paris, defeating PSG 3-1 and moving on to the quarterfinals.

“The turning point came with the World Cup in 2018, where Paul had more faith in the witch doctor than in God, entrusting the witch with a big task in order to help the French team win,” Mathias Pogba said in his video.

“The witch doctor would go on to tell Mam’s [an intermediary] that the job had already been done, and that was when Mam’s would start to be scared.

“After that, Paul continued with his witch doctor, notably in the Champions League to ensure that Manchester United would go through against PSG.

“At the request of Paul, the witch was told to neutralise Kylian Mbappe, who back then was on a rapid rise, far outstripping Paul’s fame.

“It was strange to see that during that match Kylian was a shadow of himself against a reserve side.

“The issue is that at the same time, Paul was doing everything he could to get closer to Kylian, as we could see in the media, supposedly liking him and calling him his friend, he would often call him, we would see them arm-in-arm

“It went so far that Kylian almost made it a condition for his PSG contract extension that the club would have to sign Paul, without knowing that behind his back Paul was engaging in witchcraft to sabotage his matches.

“That same witch doctor would go on to [say] that he had to stop the ongoing curse, at risk of destroying [Mbappe’s] career, keeping in mind that he was paid by the task, knowing that my brother, always close to his money, had not paid enough for a long-term job, and that the witch wanted to make him pay as much as possible,” he said according to Metro.
