5) Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho failed a drug test
The most recent story of the bunch, it’s come out over the last few days that Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho failed a drug test following Liverpool’s Europa league tie against Manchester United. It’s been revealed that he has been taking a fat burner and now faces a 6 month minimum ban from UEFA- despite claiming he didn’t know the drug was a banned substance. The hearing will take place over the coming months, but for now Liverpool have withdrawn him from the side and his potential place in France’s Euro 2016 squad is looking under serious threat.
