World anti-doping officials insist there have been no drug tests carried out in Spanish football for the last 11 months.
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) admits it finds the situation in La Liga and the whole of Spanish sport "alarming" after Spain's anti-doping programme was deemed not up to international standards.
The National Anti-Doping Organisation of Spain (AEPSAD) was declared "non-compliant" last March and its WADA-accredited laboratory in Madrid was shut down.
Since then it has been on individual sports to organise a drug testing system but WADA insists football has not followed suit.
Drug testing at Champions League, Europa League and World Cup qualifiers in Spain have also been brought into question after it emerged UEFA and FIFA refused to take control of the system.
AEPSAD insist WADA's figures are not correct, telling El Confidencial newspaper that "57 football players from the first division have undergone tests" since the start of the season.
