Farah will leave coach if doping allegations are proven

Mo Farah says he will leave coach Alberto Salazar if doping allegations are proven.

The double Olympic champion has spoken out after a TV documentary investigated the practices of his trainer.

Salazar has already insisted that he is innocent of the claims.

"If he has crossed the line and it is proven he's crossed the line, then yes I'm out," said Farah.

"These are just allegations. If there is wrongdoing then I'm the first person to run, but you have to give people a chance in life and give them the benefit of the doubt."

For more on the story, listen to Off The Ball's interview with investigative journalist David Epstein:

Speaking exclusively to Sky Sports News, Farah has flatly denied any suggestions that he himself has done anything wrong.

"It's taken me half of my life to be able to achieve what I have achieved and for people to think that I have taken a shortcut, it's not right and it's not fair. This picture that's been painted of me is not right. I'm 100 per cent clean," he said.
