Yannick Seidenberg, 39, has received his sentence.
The German Olympic silver medalist is suspended for four years for doping.

Becken tested positive for testosterone, the substance DHEA, but has maintained his innocence all along. He can still appeal the verdict to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, Cas.
The 39-year-old has played over 1,000 matches in the German top flight, made 173 caps, ten World Cups and was a key player in the German national team that sensationally took silver at the 2018 Olympics.
