About this listen
Listen to the premium episode on Patreon!
Billions circulate in the world of football – and where there’s money, there’s also deceit.
From a fake Manchester United player who tried to trick a Slovak club, to a man who lived off lies his whole life without ever kicking a ball.
In this episode, we follow the trail of bizarre scams that shook the world of football.
You’ll hear the story of Carlos Kaiser – the Brazilian “footballer” who, with charm and lies, made it into famous clubs without playing a single match.
We’ll also revisit European impostors, fake transfers, match-fixing scandals, and affairs that rocked the Champions League.
Some stories will make you laugh, others will shock you. But they all share one thing – they show that even football has its tricksters who managed to fool the whole world.
