UAE football player may be arrested if he comes to Uzbekistan

On October 15, the national team of Uzbekistan will play against the UAE as part of the World Championship qualifiers. UAE comes to Uzbekistan with 4 losses: Kuadio, Yahya Nadir and Abdulrahman Salih. 4th loss - Fabio De Lima. "Al-Wasl" football player received a passport of Uzbekistan citizenship in 2013 and registered as an Asian legionnaire in the UAE Championship. This situation led to an investigation in Uzbekistan, and it turned out that this digital passport actually belonged to another person. In 2020, Lima received UAE citizenship.

Football specialist Alisher Nikimbayev says that he does not see any legal obstacles to his coming to Uzbekistan, but Lima is afraid that the case is still open and does not want to take risks.

Fabio did not even come to the matches of "Al Wasl" in Uzbekistan. The player will watch tomorrow's match from the UAE.
