Recent information concerning the case of Hamza El Moussaoui, a Renaissance Berkane player, has revealed that the substance detected in his anti-doping test originated from an allergy medication he had taken before one of his team’s matches in the African Champions League.
The player had undergone an anti-doping test following the match between his team and Egypt’s Pyramids FC in the group stage, where the results showed the presence of a prohibited substance, sparking widespread controversy over his legal status.
According to available data, El Moussaoui remained absent from competition since the third round of the group stage, without any official announcement regarding his suspension during that period, which further shrouded the case in mystery.
Before playing the quarter-final match against Al Hilal, the suspension was unexpectedly lifted, allowing the player to return to normal participation with his team, while controversy still surrounds the details of the case.
