What is FIFA's drug policy? Empty What is FIFA's drug policy?

I was just wondering what the drug policy was for FIFA. Over the last 3 seasons 29 out of 32 NFL teams have had players receive suspensions for Marijuana use. Does FIFA suspend players? because I've never heard of a player getting suspended for Drugs, PEDs, ext. Are there any known potheads in major football leagues like the NBA?

Puff puff pass




In all seriousness though i'm not sure. Never hear of players in top leagues getting banned for pot or whatever. The focus is on performance enhancers.

In 2013 WADA amended rules on cannabis, raising threshold for a positive test from 15 nanograms per milliliter to 150 ng/m . Basically a liberalization.

Pretty sure this would be anti-doping hmm

It would be wrong for FIFA to outright ban pot use since it is legal in some countries. It should be left for each federation to decide. But as it has been previously mentioned it's not a performance enhancer so testing and implementing this sort of rule would yield very little benefit to the sport.

Pretty sure Pirlo is as high as a kite 95% of the time and he's a footballing legend.

Adrian Mutu sustained a huge fine for his cocaine use...
Can't remember if it was imposed by FIFA though... might have been UEFA
