What's magical about football transfer windows is that they bring us on a plate, season after season, information that we would never have imagined, even in our many delusions in the sports department of 20 Minutes. Imagine that in this register we perhaps passed a milestone Monday evening, with a very lunar post on social networks. The Fatal Model account (more than 111,000 subscribers on finance Paul Pogba's salary in the event of signing for Corinthians.
Free to engage wherever he wishes since the termination of his contract with Juventus last month, the 31-year-old French international will be able to return to the field from March 11, 2025, at the end of his suspension for doping. If in France, we talk a lot about the path leading to OM (partly thanks to Adrien Rabiot being a bit forceful on the subject), Brazilian football has also taken up the issue by evoking the historic club Corinthians, located in Sao Paulo.

“We will welcome you with open arms”
And obviously, even if the Brazilian championship has in recent months welcomed players who have received enormous salaries in Europe like Memphis Depay and Dimitri Payet, we can question the economic capacities of Corinthians on the Pogba file. This is where the escort site Fatal Model comes in. “We have started negotiations with Corinthians for a sponsorship which will help bring in Paul Pogba. Let’s transform the dream into reality together,” launches Fatal Model on its X account, with a supporting video.
And even a message, in French in the text, for the former Manchester United star midfielder: “You would be welcome in Brazil, Pogba! We will welcome you with open arms.” According to the Brazilian press, the platform would offer between 3 and 4 million reals (or 465,000 to 620,000 euros) for the exposure of its brand on the club's products.
“No negotiations are underway” according to the club
The Corinthians club immediately wanted to deflate the matter a little, indicating that it had simply “received an email from the company Fatal Model”. “But no negotiations are underway. The club thanks the company for its interest,” continues the Corinthians marketing department in a press release.
Our file on Paul Pogba
Sorry, dear fans of the club made legendary by Socrates in the 1980s, but the media Globo Esporte specifies that Corinthians consider themselves fairly well stocked in the midfield and that they are wondering about the state of form of Paul Pogba, which is understandable given his 12 matches played since 2022, between injuries and a long suspension for doping. Suffice to say that this big marketing stunt from Fatal Model could quickly deflate. No matter, the winter transfer window already has its “impogbable” information even before its official opening on January 1st.
