A total of 174 players underwent unannounced anti-doping controls (blood and urine samples) from November 1 to December 10 as part of the preparations for the Club World Cup in Marrakech, which runs until December 21. FIFA announced that these checks, aimed at ensuring fair play and maintaining the integrity of the competition, are part of their ongoing efforts to prevent doping in football.
Similar examinations have been conducted globally to establish the biological profiles of major international players, allowing the detection of anomalies and the presence of illicit substances. FIFA emphasizes its commitment to maintaining football as a clean sport and ensuring the well-being of players.
