London, Nov. 12 : The story of Mark Bosnich is one of triumph and tragedy.

Chelsea goalie Bosnich was one of the first players to have his career ruined by cocaine.

In 1999, the Aussie keeper rejoined Manchester United — his first English club — after seven years with Aston Villa — and instantly became a Premiership champion. On 45,000 dollars a week, Bosnich, according to The Sun, had the whole world in his hands, but within three years his career was over.

He failed a drugs test and that saw him sacked from Chelsea and banned from the game for nine months.
