    Manchester City's Kolo Toure fails drugs test

    Manchester City defender Kolo Toure has been suspended after testing positive for a specified substance. The 29-year-old was informed by the Football Association that an A sample he provided had returned positive.

    City confirmed in a statement that Toure had been suspended "pending the outcome of the legal process". Ivory Coast international Toure, whose brother Yaya also plays for City, is a former club captain who joined City from Arsenal in July 2009.

          Man City defender Kolo Toure 'took wife's slimming aid'

          Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes Kolo Toure's failed drugs test is a result of the player taking a "slimming product belonging to his wife". The Manchester City defender, 29, has been suspended after testing positive for a specified substance.

          But Toure's ex-boss Wenger has spoken to the player and said: "He wants to control his weight a little bit because that's where he has some problems. "He has a clean life, is very honest, is always at home and is a family man."
