According to information from L’Equipe, the French Anti-Doping Agency (AFLD) has offered an administrative composition agreement of two years’ suspension to French sprinter Mouhamadou Fall, 31. Proposal that Fall declined.

The sprinter, 3rd French performer in history over 200m since the 20″16 achieved a few weeks ago in the United States, is evolving under the threat of a suspension, after he was guilty of three breaches localization obligations in less than twelve months – on April 1, 2022, May 8, 2022 and June 16, 2022.

For a year, however, Fall and his lawyer Romain Vanni have contested each breach. The procedure therefore stretched until April 21, when Fall was offered this administrative composition agreement, a suspension of two years. “We refused the proposal, because it is the maximum sentence,” said Master Vanni to L’Equipe.

The logical continuation of the procedure should bring Fall before the AFLD Sanctions Committee, probably in July. If Fall is suspended for two years, he will miss the 2024 Paris Olympics and the results he has achieved since July could be overturned.

However, the possibility exists that the Sanctions Commission will overrule the AFLD’s decision, as has happened in the past. Pending his appearance before the commission, Fall is not suspended on a provisional basis and can align himself with the competitions, as he has done since the start of the summer season in the United States.
