Edgar Esteban Dueñas Peñaflor, (born 5 March 1983 in Guadalajara, Jalisco) is a Mexican professional footballer who plays as a center back for Puebla FC on loan from Deportivo Toluca.

Career

National team

During the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup, Dueñas, and four other members of the Mexico national team, tested positive for the banned substance of Clenbuterol and were withdrawn from the squad.[1] Later, all players were exonerated as FIFA determined that the accused had ingested the banned substance through contaminated meat that had been inadvertently served during a pre-tournament training camp.[2]

However, World Anti-Doping Agency appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to request a ban.[3] On 12 October 2011 the request was withdrawn when the full record was made available to WADA.[4]
