Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho is weighing up his options after seeing doping charges dropped by UEFA.

The Daily Express says he will explore whether he has grounds for taking legal action against UEFA after being cleared of violating drugs laws.

He had been accused of failing a test following the Europa League second leg showdown with Manchester United on March 17 and has not played since, ruling him out of the final of that competition and also France's Euro 2016 campaign.

Sakho and his legal team, headed by Mike Morgan of Morgan Sports Law, will now consider whether that is the end of the matter or whether they can take further action given the disruption to his career and the distress caused by the allegations.
