Mortada Mansour said in statements on his club’s channel after the match: “Fatuh and Jumaa are for sale. They do not have coronavirus. They have drugs in their bodies. They have avoided a doping test and admitted to using drugs, illegal relationships and drugs. We do not want lie to the public, so they are suspended, and tomorrow they will be analyzed, and we will put them up for sale.”
He added: “During the warm-up, the two knew there would be a drug test after the match, so they left the warm-up because they were taking drugs.”
