Farah Happy For Samples To Be Re-tested

By Daily Sports on January 22, 2020

Mo Farah says he is "happy for any anti-doping body" to test any of his previous blood and urine samples.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) has said it will investigate all athletes who trained with Farah's banned former coach Alberto Salazar.

Salazar was found guilty of doping violations and banned for four years.

UK Anti-Doping (Ukad) said on Friday it would need "credible evidence" a sample contained a banned substance before handing it over to any investigation.

"I've seen reports of my name in connection to Ukad and Wada about sample retesting," said four-time Olympic champion Farah on Twitter.

"Just to be clear, I was not consulted about this and as I've said many times, I am happy for any anti-doping body to test any of my previous samples anytime."

Salazar was banned in October after a four-year investigation by the US Anti-Doping Agency (Usada), with Dr Jeffrey Brown, a Nike-paid endocrinologist who treated many of Salazar's athletes, receiving the same sanction. (BBC)
