Richard Freeman had claimed to have ordered this product for the treatment of erection problems from the technical director of the British Cycling Federation.


Former Sky and UK cycling team doctor Richard Freeman was convicted of ordering testosterone in 2011 for doping purposes, according to Britain's Medical Council on Friday.

Freeman admitted 18 of 22 charges relating to ordering the product but denied purchasing it to administer to a runner.

He claimed testosterone was ordered to treat erection problems from federation technical director Shane Sutton.

Created in 2010, the Sky, renamed Ineos Grenadiers in 2020, has won the Tour de France seven times with Bradley Wiggins (2012), Chris Froome (2013, 2015, 2016, 2017), Geraint Thomas (2018) and Egan Bernal (2019) ) as well as two Tours of Spain (Froome in 2011 and 2017) and two Tours of Italy (Froome in 2018, Georghegan Hart in 2020).
