A Dutch amateur footballer has pleaded guilty to fraud and forgery after scamming teams in South Africa, Chile, Denmark and Transnistria into offering him a contract.
Bernio Jordan Enzo Verhagen has been sentenced to 15 months imprisonment as well as deportation from Denmark as part of his sentencing, which was handed down on Tuesday.
The Dutchman will also be required to pay a fine while covering the cost of the case, which has seen him scam clubs across several continents.
