Athletic Bilbao Star Yeray Alvarez Faces Controversy: Alopecia Drug Sparks Unexpected Failed Drug Test Scandal
In a statement posted on his social media accounts, Alvarez wrote: “A few weeks ago I was told that I had tested positive in a doping control carried out by UEFA after the first leg of the Europa League semi-finals against Manchester United. Receiving that news was a very hard blow and, honestly, I could not believe it, since I have never used prohibited substances in my life.
“Since I overcame my illness, I have been following a treatment against alopecia for years and, after studying the case, we have found that the positive was because I involuntarily took a preventive medicine against hair loss that contained a prohibited substance.
