West Ham winger Robert Snodgrass has been handed a one-match ban after being found guilty of misconduct towards UK Anti-Doping.
It is understood Scotland international Snodgrass was not scheduled to be tested nor did he refuse to take a test when officials visited West Ham’s training ground in February.
However, an Independent Regulatory Commission has still found him guilty of misconduct and as well as the ban, the 31-year-old has also been fined £30,000.

“The player has been given a one-match suspension, which is not currently active whilst he considers his right of appeal, and fined 30,000.”
