Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri may face a four-year ban if he is found guilty of breaking World Anti-Doping Agency rules.
Despite playing for loan club Sevilla on Wednesday in the Copa del Rey against Real Madrid, Nasri is still under investigation by Spain’s anti-doping agency after his trip to the Los Angeles intravenous therapy clinic Drip Doctors last month.
The Nasri controversy started when the clinic tweeted on December 27: ‘We provided Nasri (with) a concierge immunity IV drip to keep him hydrated and in top health during his busy soccer season with Sevilla.’
Their website advertises their immunity drip as ‘an infusion tailor-made to boost your immune system’.
