Jackson: 'Farah must do what's best for him'

Former world champion hurdler Colin Jackson has said that Mo Farah must do what is right for him amid accusations that his coach has taken part in doping.

Alberto Salazar is alleged to have used doping techniques with other athletes, resulting in the double Olympic champion pulling out of a meeting in Birmingham.

The retired Welshman told BBC Sport: "Mo, get all the information you possibly can and do ultimately what's best for you, because your athletics career belongs to you.

"And if you're happy with your circumstance then you keep with it, if you're unhappy and unsure it's going to have a real knock-on effect in your mind."

Salazar has denied the accusations.
