Three Premier League Clubs Have Denied "False" Doping Allegations Made By The Sunday Times.

The paper claims London-based private doctor Mark Bonar prescribed banned performance-enhancing drugs to over 150 British athletes including footballers.


Arsenal said they were "extremely disappointed" by the publication of the claims, "which are without foundation".

Chelsea said the claims were "false and entirely without foundation" while leaders Leicester also denied them.

Bonar himself broke his silence on the matter on Sunday evening, writing on Twitter that the newspaper's claims were "false and very misleading".

"I have never had a relationship with any premier football club or player," he added on his unverified account, @ZenGrifter.

Chelsea added they have "never used the services of Dr Bonar and have no knowledge or record of any of our players having been treated by him or using his services".

Leicester denied the allegations and added: "We are extremely disappointed that The Sunday Times has published unsubstantiated allegations referring to players from clubs including Leicester City when, on its own admission, it has insufficient evidence to support the claims."

Championship side Birmingham City said: "The club have not used the services of Mark Bonar and has no knowledge or record of any of our players, past or present, doing so."
