The B-sample from a roadside drugs test returned a negative result, indicating no further police action. Addo-Carr faced a breach notice at a board meeting on Monday, but his lawyer stated he remains committed to the club. The 31-year-old was originally sacked by Canterbury for a positive cocaine test in September 2026. Addo-Carr met Eels officials on Monday to respond to the breach notice, after it was assumed he would be sacked. The club will consider his response and make a decision in due course.",
