Bosnich charged over positive test
LONDON, Dec 27: Chelsea goalkeeper Mark Bosnich was charged with bringing the game into disrepute and breaching doping regulations by the English Football Association on Friday after he tested positive for cocaine.
The 30-year-old Australian has been suspended from all football activities until the charges have been heard.
A statement on the FA’s website said: “The Football Association can confirm that Mark Bosnich of Chelsea FC has been charged with breaches of FA Rules E1 and E26.
“The FA would not normally make any public statements at this stage of a case of this type. However, in view of numerous media reports over the past few weeks, the situation required clarification.
“The charges respectively relate to bringing the game into disrepute and to breaching the FA’s Doping Regulations by testing positive for a prohibited substance, namely cocaine.—Reuters
