Ujah was provisionally suspended after prohibited substances Ostarine and S-23 were detected in his A and B samples following the men’s 4x100m relay final at last year’s Tokyo Olympics. Ujah and his team mates were stripped of their silver medal in February. Earlier this week, the Athletics Integrity [Unit](https://www.financedigest.com/soccer-casemiro-intent-on-joining-man-united-ancelotti-says.html "Soccer-Casemiro intent on joining Man United, Ancelotti says") cleared Ujah of intentionally taking the substances and issued the ban, which will be in force until June 5 2023. If (Ujah) is available to compete we will [select him,” Maguire told British](https://www.financedigest.com/myfirmsapp-is-selected-for-great-british-scaleupprogramme.html "MyFirmsApp is Selected for Great British ScaleupProgramme") media on Thursday. “I haven’t spoken to CJ in a couple of years.

Maguire said everyone would have to be “on the same page” if Ujah is to be reintegrated into the team and that there were several [factors to be considered](https://www.financedigest.com/7-factors-to-consider-before-your-business-moves-to-a-subscription-model.html "7 Factors to Consider Before Your Business Moves to a Subscription Model").
