Scotsman (Sport): Banned Contador signs new deal with Saxo Bank

[RSS Bot]

CYCLING: Alberto Contador has agreed a contract extension until 2015 with Team Saxo Bank for when he returns to competition later this year after a doping ban, the Spanish rider and his team said in a statement yesterday. Contador, who was stripped of his 2010 Tour de France title and banned for two years after failing a drugs test for the anabolic agent clenbuterol, is eligible to return to action on 5 August. Contador, who also won the Tour in 2007 and 2009, was given a retroactive ban in February after a high-profile case which was taken all the way to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
