WATCH: Paul Pogba vibes to Asake's ‘Worldwide’ alongside Streamer iShowSpeed

In a refreshing twist on his time off the field, Juventus and France midfielder Paul Pogba was recently spotted vibing to Nigerian afrobeats sensation Asake’s hit song "Worldwide" with popular American streamer iShowSpeed.

Pogba, 31, is currently facing a doping ban and is on the sidelines until March 2025. After rejoining Juventus on a free transfer, the former Manchester United star endured a series of injuries, culminating in the doping ban that has kept him from competitive play. Initially issued a four-year suspension, Pogba’s ban was reduced to 18 months, allowing him to resume training in January and make a full comeback in March next year.

Despite the setback, Pogba has been engaging in media appearances, and his recent livestream with iShowSpeed gave fans a glimpse of his vibrant personality and love for afrobeats. When it came time for an outro song, Pogba enthusiastically chose Asake’s "Worldwide," adding a shoutout to Nigeria’s music scene.

For Pogba, this playful moment amid his hiatus from the field speaks to his resilience and enduring passion for both football and music, bringing fans one step closer to his anticipated return.
