Carvajal forced to miss Spain’s celebration
As reported by Metro.co.uk, the 32-year-old was forced to miss a significant part of his team’s Euro title celebration after being randomly selected for testing by the competition’s anti-doping committee.
According to a previous report by UEFA.com, players can be chosen for testing at any time, and Carvajal had to interrupt his celebrations with his teammates until he provided a urine sample.
