The World Anti-Doping Agency must investigate all athletes who coached with prohibited Alberto Salazar, according to IOC president Thomas Bach.
Salazar, the former coach of Britains Mo Farah, was this week found guilty of doping violations after a four-year investigation by the US Anti-Doping Agency (Usada).
61, the conclusion contrary to Salazar, came after a two-year court struggle.
Bach stated the case isvery stressing and raises serious concerns.
Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, Bach said:Were convinced that Wada will look in to this case very carefully and will follow up on queries which continue following this report.
The IOC may write a letter to Wada in this respect.
On what he is going to be asking Wada, Bach added:To see how many athletes are researched. Have all of the athletes been investigated whove been coaching in this centre?
Does the report address the entire length of the occurrence of the undertaking or just a part of it?
Could any Olympic results directly or indirectly be affected?
We learned in the report that the athletes wouldnt have understood what happened to them this is a significant element when looking at sanctions however disqualification is required whether the athlete understands or not.
We are very confident that Wada is considering this anyway so were waiting for the advice out of Wada inside this respect.
In a statement, Wada explained:Wada notes that the decisions passed in the cases of Alberto Salazar and Jeffrey Brown in relation for their participation from the Nike Oregon Project. As always, Wada may examine all elements of this instance.
We will wait the IOCs correspondence but we cannot comment publicly until we have reviewed the situation in full.
Salazar, whos stated hell appeal the judgement, runs the Nike Oregon Project – house to four-time Olympic winner Farah from 2011 before 2017.
Even the 36-year-old Farah, plus a six-time world champion, said:I am relieved that Usada has, after four decades, completed their investigation to Alberto Salazar.
I left the Nike Oregon Project in 2017 however, as Ive consistently stated, I have no tolerance for anybody who violates the rules or crosses online. Im glad theres been a conclusion.
The Briton has always denied breaking any rules and hasnt failed a drugs test.
Allegations from Salazar surfaced in 2015, however, UK Athletics cleared Farah to stay with the Nike Oregon Project.
