The 30-year-old said in a statement: “I was told of the Tribunale Nazionale Antidoping’s decision today and believe it is erroneous. I am saddened, startled, and upset that all I have built over my professional playing career has been ripped away from me.
“When I am free of legal restrictions, the full story will be revealed, but I have never knowingly or intentionally taken any supplements that violate anti-doping regulations.” As a professional athlete, I would never use forbidden substances to boost my performance, and I have never mistreated or cheated fellow athletes or supporters of any team I have played for or against.
“As a result of the ruling issued today, I will appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.”
