Mo Farah's coach Alberto Salazar says the media outlets who have accused him of doping are "knowingly making false comments" and he denies "all allegations of doping".
In a statement to The Guardian, Salazar, who heads the prestigious Nike Oregon Project where Farah trains, said the BBC and ProPublica's allegations were inaccurate, unfounded, and had unfairly damaged him and his athletes.
Salazar said: "Given the time and effort the BBC and ProPublica committed to making these false allegations, I hope that media and fans will afford me a short time to show the accusers are knowingly making false statements.
"I will document and present the facts as quickly as I can so that Galen Rupp and Mo can focus on doing what they love and have worked so hard to achieve."
Salazar had previously said in a statement: "I have said all along that I believe in a clean sport, hard work and I deny all allegations of doping.
"The BBC and ProPublica have engaged in inaccurate and unfounded journalism, with a complete lack of regard for both Galen and Mo."
Farah withdrew from the Diamond League meeting in Birmingham at the weekend after being upset that his name had "been dragged through the mud" by the accusations levelled at his coach.
Salazar was accused of doping in the BBC Panorama documentary 'Catch Me If You Can', which aired last Wednesday.
No suggestions were made of Farah being implicated and the 32-year-old said on Saturday he had no intention of leaving Salazar, who he has been working with in Oregon since early 2011.
And UK Athletics has also previously stated they have 'absolutely no concerns' over Salazar's working relationship with Farah.
