The Israel Football Association prosecutor has demanded that Ironi Tiberias stand trial for assisting drug use and providing stimulants, as well as for violating regulations and failing to comply with a judicial decision, according to Ben Goldfarb (N12).
The Israel Football Association prosecutor has formally demanded that Ironi Tiberias be put on trial for assisting drug use, violating regulations, and ignoring a judicial decision in the ongoing 'illegal infusions' affair, according to Ben Goldfarb (N12).
The club has previously denied the allegations. As The Zioneer reported, Ironi Tiberias owner Ben Goldfarb stated that players received only saline infusions for muscle recovery and accused critics of trying to 'frame' the club. The affair also led to the suspension of the head coach, technical director, and five senior players by the Israel Anti-Doping Agency (NADO).
The trial demand now moves to the Israel Football Association's disciplinary bodies. The club's response and the potential timeline for proceedings remain unclear.
