An ex-professional footballer turned cocaine dealer has been jailed for eight years.
Midfielder Layton Maxwell, who played for Cardiff City and Swansea City, allowed a multi-million pound drugs gang to store supplies at his Cardiff home.
Cardiff Crown Court heard how Maxwell, now 43, was paid £500 a month to be a "courier" for gang bosses.
He was one of eight defendants jailed for a combined 80 years.
More gang members are yet to be sentenced.
Maxwell, who was born in St Asaph, Denbighshire, was just 19 when he scored on his Liverpool debut at Anfield in 1999, only to be released by the club in 2001.
