In July, Paul Pogba claimed he was the target of a £11.3m blackmail plot.
On August 31, Mathias said that he would reveal great “revelations” about Paul Pogba.

“Today I prefer to believe the word of my team-mate,” he said.
“It is his word against the word of his brother, I am going to believe my team-mate.
“It’s not a time to put more onto him. I’m pretty detached from it all.”
