Arsene Wenger Claims Football Has Serious Doping Problem

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has become the latest to speak out on the topic of doping in sports in the wake of the massive scandal currently engulfing Russian athletics.

Speaking to L'Equipe (h/t the Daily Telegraph's Jeremy Wilson), the longtime Gunners boss was adamant none of his players have ever doped, but he and his team have faced plenty of sides who have:

I try to be faithful to the values that I believe to be important in life and to pass them on to others. In 30 years as a manager, I’ve never had my players injected to make them better.
