Among them, two players are from Navua, and one hails from Suva, with one of them being a national squad member.

Mohammed Yusuf, the Chief Executive of Fiji FA, explained that players who do not comply with the testing process when selected are automatically treated as having tested positive.

These players will now face charges and be subject to the disciplinary committee’s actions.
