Former Reading player Sam Sodje is currently on trial at the Old Bailey being accused of helping to launder £80k with his two brothers Efe and Akpo, as reported by the Daily Mirror.
Sam, 38, played for the Royals in their 2006/07 Premier League campaign and went on to play for Leeds United, Charlton Athletic and Portsmouth among others.
The brothers are accused of helping to launder money stolen by fraudsters from five companies in Colombia, Italy, India and Abu Dhabi. The money was reportedly paid into accounts under the name of Akpo, after the receipt of fake email invoices.
