Mo Farah has said in a statement that he has "no tolerance for anyone who breaks the rules or crosses a line" after former coach Alberto Salazar's four-year USADA ban for multiple doping violations.

Farah released a statement in response to Salazar's ban which read: "I'm relieved that USADA has, after four years, completed their investigation into Alberto Salazar.

"I left the Nike Oregon Project in 2017 but as I've always said, I have no tolerance for anyone who breaks the rules or crosses a line.

"A ruling has been made and I'm glad there has finally been a conclusion."
