The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has been forced to issue an apology and pay 'substantial' damages to former Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho after winning his libel case on Wednesday.
The French defender, now at Crystal Palace, was suing for £13million and also sought an apology over his drugs ban in 2016 because of 'defamatory' emails sent by WADA that Sakho believes cut short his time at Liverpool under Jurgen Klopp.
Sakho, 30, was suspended from football in April 2016 after testing positive for a fat-burning substance called Higenamine following a Europa League tie with Manchester United.

Good for him. WADA has wrecked many an athlete's career with their bogus list.
