LIVERPOOL. — Liverpool defender Kolo Toure has voiced his support for teammate Mamadou Sakho after the France international allegedly failed a drugs test before Saturday’s 2-2 English Premier League soccer draw against struggling Newcastle United.

France’s RMC radio reported that Sakho, who is currently not subject to any suspension as the result of a investigation by UEFA was pending, had failed a dope test following the use of a fat-burning drug as an aid to weight loss.

Toure was banned for six months in 2011 while at former club Manchester City for a similar failed drugs test. — Reuters.
