In an official statement, Ajax explains that in the Onana trial he has defended himself together with his lawyers before UEFA, which continued to ask for the twelve months previously imposed. “With this sentence we have gained three months compared to the initial suspension”, explains Van der Sar, the club's general manager. “That's why it was worth it. We stand for clean sport. They are convinced that André took the doping substance by accident and not to improve his performance. This is supported by all parties, including UEFA. “
