Mathias’s Heartfelt Support for His Brother Paul Pogba

After 811 days away from the pitch, Paul Pogba made his return on November 22 against AS Monaco at Rennes, where they lost 4-1. His comeback drew significant reactions, particularly from his brothers, Mathias and Florentin, who shared their thoughts on social media. A week later, after Pogba played at the Louis-II Stadium for the first time in a match against PSG, Mathias posted another supportive message.

“My brother… The POGBACK. If only people knew what we’ve been through. Two years away from the field. Two years away from what you love since childhood. Two years of enduring comments, judgments, and glances. Two years of injustice that could have broken anyone. But you, never. Seeing you lace up your boots today brings it all back. The hours spent at the City stadium in Roissy. The debates over whether a goal was in or not. The endless discussions about who was better, Cristiano or Messi. Our idols we imitated whenever they appeared on screen. Just the three of us, inseparable, united by one language: football. And now… seeing you back on the field after this storm is something else. It’s powerful. It’s a lesson. Because despite the challenges, despite a ban that took you away from your passion, you never bowed your head. You never stopped believing. You never stopped working behind the scenes, when no one was watching, when everyone doubted. This return is more than just a sports comeback. It’s the POGBACK. It’s a symbol. It’s proof that nothing can extinguish the flame of a dream when you fight tirelessly. Today, I don’t just see my brother back on the field. I see a man who has risen. I see an example for everyone facing difficulties. I see the pride of our family, our community, and those who resemble us. Now it’s your turn. The World Cup is in sight…”, he wrote on his LinkedIn account.
