Miguel Angel López has insisted he is innocent of any doping offence, that he had no idea that he would be sacked by previous squad Astana Qazaqstan, and that he is looking forward to racing with his new team, Medellin.

“I didn’t dope, my biological passport is intact,” López said in an interview with Colombian outlet ADN Cycling.
