7 Footballers Who Have Been Arrested Or Banned From Playing Football Because Of Them Caught For Possession Cocaine

Mark Bosnich

Former Manchester United and Chelsea footballer Mark Bosnich was banned from football for nine months after testing positive for a Premier League class A substance, cocaine, in 2002.

Because of his romance with model Sophie Anderton, the former goalie blamed his life for spiraling out of control. Bosnich, an Australian, also claimed that he was lost in West London’s nightlife, which explains his constant possession of the illegal substance. He eventually recovered and returned to football.
