In a bizarre turn of events following France’s 1-1 draw with Poland in their Euro 2024 qualifier, Arsenal defender William Saliba was left stranded in Dortmund after the team bus departed without him. The reason? A post-match anti-doping control that appears to have gone on far longer than anyone anticipated.
Saliba, an ever-present figure in France’s EURO campaign so far, put in another assured performance at the heart of the defense. However, his contribution to the team was overshadowed by the logistical mishap that unfolded after the final whistle.
As the rest of the French squad boarded the team bus, presumably eager to begin their journey back to their base, Saliba was caught up in the mandatory anti-doping procedures. However, with the clock ticking past 9pm CET, the bus departed, leaving the young defender behind.
While details remain scarce, it appears the delay was due to unforeseen circumstances surrounding the anti-doping process. It’s a situation that raises questions about the efficiency of the post-match procedures and the lack of communication that led to a player being left behind.
One can only imagine Saliba’s surprise and frustration as he watched his teammates depart without him. It’s a situation that is sure to elicit a few laughs among his Arsenal teammates, but also serves as a reminder of the unexpected situations that can arise in the world of professional football.
