Ivory Coast keeper Gbohouo banned from AFCON for doping accusations
The governing body of soccer confirmed Gbohouo’s suspension on Tuesday, a day before Ivory Coast plays its opening game of the tournament against Equatorial Guinea.
FIFA didn’t give any more details about the ban, saying it couldn’t comment further because “proceedings are ongoing.”
Gbohouo, who plays for Ethiopian team Wolkite Ketema, started for Ivory Coast in its most recent World Cup qualifiers in October and November. He was one of four goalkeepers selected in the squad for the African Cup.
