UEFA suspended "Liverpool" defender M. Sakho for a month

Mamadou Sakho is unlikely to step onto the field this season. UEFA announced today that Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho is suspended for a month due to the use of prohibited substances. It was reported last week that M. Sakho did not pass a doping test. UEFA had not confirmed the player's disqualification at that time, but today decided that the Frenchman will not be able to play for at least 30 days. Prohibited substances aiding fat burning were found in M. Sakho's body. The center back did not dare to appeal the decision and admitted his guilt. UEFA has not yet made a final decision on M. Sakho's disqualification. The footballer may face a stricter UEFA punishment in the coming month. This season, M. Sakho played 34 matches for Liverpool.
