Dinamo have stated that they ‘can not comment on the duration of the disciplinary proceedings’.

It is not known whether the side will be docked any points as a result of the doping test.


A club statement reads: ‘Our players have been regularly subjected to doping controls for years after European and league games, and never has anything like this ever happened, so that we have to say that we are surprised by this result.



‘Arijan Ademi was tested six times in the last year and each time the report was negative.’
