Banned for 14 months by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) for an alleged drugs violation only last week, Peru’s captain Paolo Guerrero has now been cleared to travel to Russia to take part in World Cup 2018.
Peru captain Paolo Guerrero was cleared Thursday by a Swiss supreme court judge to play at the World Cup despite a doping ban.
Switzerland’s supreme court granted an interim order to freeze Guerrero’s 14-month ban for a positive doping test at a World Cup qualifying game.
“As a result, Paolo Guerrero can take part in the next World Cup,” the federal court said.
