According to the ALAD, an analysis conducted following the 14 May championship match between F91 Dudelange and CS Fola Esch revealed the presence of the drug, which is currently listed on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s list of banned substances.

Françoise, who transferred to FC Progrès Niederkorn earlier this year, did not dispute the allegations at 6 July hearing. The disciplinary council against doping (CDD) based its decision on the basis that the player did not commit a “significant fault”.
