[Saba Sports News] According to Italian media reports, Idrissa Gueye, the 19-year-old forward of Udinese, is under police investigation for using a fake driving license, and the club has hired a lawyer to handle the case. In the second half of the match against Como, Gueye came on as a substitute and helped his team secure a valuable draw. However, the talented Senegalese player has experienced quite a bit of trouble over the past week. Upon his return to Italy, Gueye was stopped by police at the Fernetti border crossing, as his driving license was suspected to be counterfeit. As a result, he has been charged with using false documents and is no longer allowed to drive his own Audi. In the end, Gueye had to arrange for someone to pick him up in order to return to Udinese. Udinese has entrusted a lawyer to deal with the matter, aiming to prove that Gueye acted in good faith by using a driving license he had legally obtained in Senegal.
The editor believes that similar situations have occurred to other African players in Europe, and the problem appears to lie in the document conversion process. Although the incident took place last week, it was not reported until recently. Gueye has now returned to training.
