Maynar is accu🌜sed of distributing prohibited substances through a sports physiology clinic at the University of Extremadura. The investigation turned up links 🐻between Maynar and López, which led Astana Qazaqstan to first suspend, then reinstate, and then fire López in 2022.
Maynar preꦬviously asserted López's innocence in Jan꧃uary, 🧸saying, "I would put my hand in the fire that he has never used banned substances in his life" and said he only offered "nutritional support".
In an interview with El Contraanálisis published today, Maynar said López insistedꦕ his advice🐷 include no doping substances.
"How am I going to send this man something and send it to him with the controls that are made at the Giro, on the Tour? Especially in Italy. It's absurd," Maynar said⛎.
