Al-Saadi Gaddafi, a son of Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi who plays for Serie A side Perugia, has tested positive for norandrosterone, Italian sporting authorities confirmed today.
Italy's Olympic Committee (CONI), the nation's sporting watchdog, said in a statement that Gaddafi had failed a regular doping test at a match between Perugia and Reggina on October 5th.
Norandrosterone is a metabolite of the steroid nandrolone.
Gaddafi signed for Perugia last June.
