Fresh hope for Callum Priestley

The reliability of doping violations for clenbuterol in the last few months have been raised with an outbreak of positive tests for the anabolic steroid clenbuterol at this summer’s under-17 football World Cup in Mexico.

One hundred and one positive tests were recorded for clenbuterol out of 208 urine samples taken during the tournament, according to a revelation by FIFA.

The statistics are so extraordinary that both FIFA and the World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) have confirmed they will not be prosecuting any cases, blaming the failed tests on contaminated meat.
Mexican authorities admit the country has a major problem with farmers feeding clenbuterol to livestock to produce leaner, more valuable meat.
Based on what it describes as FIFA’s “compelling evidence”, Wada has also dropped its appeal against the decision of the Mexican football federation not to sanction five senior Mexican players who tested positive for clenbuterol at the Concacaf Gold Cup in June.
The news is expected to help Alberto Contador and Callum Priestley who have been accused of making use of clenbuterol but have blamed contaminated meat for the positive tests. The ban of Priestley is due to end in February, though he remains banned from the Olympics for life under the rules of British Olympic Association.
