[Paul Pogba is missing]

I agree, he should be included in the game. As Mario Vuskovic from HSV has a similar ban in real life for doping offences and he's still included within the game, just has a global ban in place.

** Update ** 

Not sure if you can look at rectifying this issue or not, but I've noticed that the German leagues compared to that of the English, Italian, Spanish and other leagues are the only ones which seem to allow 1-40 in squad numbers on the drop down. As with the other leagues, their number options go up 1-99. Not sure if this is a bug or not, but could it be fixed if so?

I have noticed this being an issue again in the current early versions for fm24 too. It seemed to be ok for fm23 in my saves, but always very hit and miss. Definitely needs looking into.
