Daniel Godelli (born January 10, 1992, in Peqin) is an Albanian weightlifter, and Olympian[1] competing in the 69 kg and 77 kg categories until 2018 and 81 kg starting in 2018 after the International Weightlifting Federation reorganized the categories.[2]
He has won various medals, most notably the gold medal at the 2014 World Championship in Almaty, but his results at Almaty were later disqualified due to testing positive for doping.[3]
Career
The most notable achievement during Godelli's youth activities was winning the gold medal on the World Junior Championships in 2011.[4] In this year, also he won bronze medal at 2011 European Weightlifting Championships in Kazan.[5]
In 2013 he won a silver (big) medal in the 2013 European Weightlifting Championships in Tirana, Albania.[6] He had silver in Snatch and gold in Clean&Jerk.
In 2014 he repeated himself with a silver (big) medal, but in the 77 kg category, and lost the gold medal to Erkand Qerimaj only for a slightly heavier body weight, as he had lifted the same combined weight as Qerimaj, 349 kg.[7]
He initially won a gold medal at the 2014 World Weightlifting Championships in the 77 kg category, and in doing so became Albania's first World Champion.[8] The results were later disqualified as Godelli failed an anti-doping test for the steroid Stanozolol,[9][10] as a result he was banned from competition until December 10 2016.
