LONDON, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has called on soccer authorities to introduce compulsory blood testing to check for drugs cheats. His comments come after a week where the head of the Spanish soccer league was forced to deny allegations he was complicit in the provision of banned substances to players while president of Real Sociedad. A damning report into doping in Australian sport was also released.

The World Anti-Doping Agency reinstated Friday the accreditation of the Madrid laboratory it had suspended from anti-doping analysis in December. WADA said the lab had been allowed to resume its anti-doping work after it "successfully complied with the requirements for early reinstatement." The agency is responsible for accrediting and re-accrediting anti-doping laboratories, as well as ensuring that they maintain the highest quality standards. WADA has the power to suspend a lab's accreditation for failing to adhere to the International Standard for Laboratories.
