Alberto Salazar denies Mo Farah rift

Mo Farah's coach Alberto Salazar refutes claims that there is a problem between himself and the double Olympic champion.

Mo Farah's coach Alberto Salazar has denied reports suggesting that there is a rift between himself and the Olympic champion.

The Nike Oregon Project head coach has been rocked by a series of allegations that claim he has given his athletes performance-enhancing drugs.

It has been suggested that Farah is staying away from the Oregon Project and is training in France due to the doping claims, but Salazar insists that the Brit always travels to Europe at this time of year.

"Mo is on a different training cycle, as he always is at this time of year," Salazar told OregonLive. "So I send him to Europe to get accustomed to the time zone. This is how we've always done it it.

"This winter Barry administered my workouts to Mo in Ethiopia for six weeks, and Mo broke the world two-mile record."

Reports have emerged this week suggesting that Farah missed two drugs tests prior to his gold medal successes at London 2012.
