The French international informed the governing body of his decision on Tuesday, and also provided explanations for the presence of the prohibited product.
Liverpool has however declined to comment on the matter saying it is a process between the player and UEFA, and will only offer a position once the undertaking is resolved.
The case will be dealt with by UEFA's Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body. The 26-year old will have to give a satisfactory explanation as to why a prohibited substance was found in his sample. A hearing will be set and Sakho faces an anxious wait to discover the punishment he will face.
His place in the French national team ahead of the European Championship this summer is now under threat. In the meantime, he will remain unavailable for selection during the process after a joint decision between Liverpool and the player.
