Sochaux, France, May 18, 2020 (AFP) - Paul Pogba's older brother Florentin Pogba has joined Sochaux in the French second division, the club said on Monday.
The 29-year old defender has agreed a three-year deal and will take a medical, the club added.
Florentin was born in Conakry but played for France at youth level before going on to become a Guinean international.
He began his career at Celta Vigo in Spain and has had stints at Sedan and Saint-Etienne in France as well as Genclerbirligi in Turkey. He has been a free agent since MLS outfit Atlanta United released him late last year.
Sochaux were 14th in Ligue 2 when competition was halted in mid-March by the coronavirus pandemic.
