On August 6th 2016, Jose Angulo moved from Independiente to Granada for a club record €4.5 million but weeks later, the 21-year-old tested positive for Cocaine.

In one of the most outrageous stories of the summer, Angulo's contract at the La Liga side is in the process of being terminated after he failed a drugs test.

The player had been suspended since August 25th when Granada learned from the South American Football Confederation that the Ecuador international striker had tested positive for a 'banned substance' and sporting director Javier Torralbo told the media that he failed because of Cocaine.

Toarralbo said: "I got a call from the Independiente del Valle president [Franklin Alberto Tello] and he told us that the player had tested positive for cocaine."

"My world collapsed because, after completing such a difficult signing, he was going to be a very important player for Granada and for that to happen was very tough. We are not responsible for acts committed by third parties and the issue is now with our legal team."

Angulo signed a five-year contract with the Spanish club after joining from Independiente del Valle but after a club record deal, his contract will be terminated in the near future.
