Australian World Cup star Cristian Volpato allegedly tested positive for cocaine after he was pulled over for speeding in Sydney on Friday, police and reports said.
A New South Wales police statement said a 22-year-old man -- widely identified as Italy-based Volpato by local media -- was allegedly caught speeding twice overnight.
This time he was drug tested and returned a positive result for cocaine, police claimed, with a second sample sent for further analysis.
"His international driver's licence was suspended for a period of six months, withdrawing his driving privileges in NSW," police said.
