Medical tests clear Daniel Maldini of drug use following a car accident

According to CNA Sport, hospital tests ruled out drug use by Daniel Maldini after a road accident in Milan on September 13, and his driving license was confiscated after he was found to be over the legal blood alcohol limit. He had scored the winning goal in Cagliari's 1-0 victory over Udinese, and his lawyer Danilo Buongiorno said the findings corroborate his client’s position that he has never used drugs, with drink-driving remaining as the charge.
