Premier League footballer Yves Bissouma allegedly r0bbed of over £800,000

 Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Yves Bissouma has reportedly had more than 800,000 “stolen” from his VIP account at Coutts bank in an alleged fraud case. The alleged losses incurred by the 30 million Spurs star occurred over a nearly two-year period, between September 2022 and June 2024.  Coutts is known for banking high-net-worth clients, including celebrities, billionaires, and members of the Royal Family.Metropolitan Police confirmed that Maurice Gomes, 31, was charged with two counts of fraud by false representation in October, following a report made by the player over a year ago. The maximum sentence for each offense is 10 years. Court records indicate Gomes is alleged to have “dishonestly” transferred 834,334.40 of Bissouma’s cash to himself without the Premier League stars knowledge or consent, with the intent to “make a personal gain.” Gomes is due to appear at Highbury Corner magistrates court today. The exact connection between Gomes and Bissouma, who is reportedly paid 50,000-a-week, is not known, and it remains unclear how Gomes allegedly gained access to the 29-year-old Mali internationals account. Bissouma is likely to be called to give evidence if the case proceeds to trial.A source close to the player noted the emotional toll of the incident, stating, “This has been deeply hurtful for Yves. Its been a tough year for him on and off the pitch, and this hanging over his head will have contributed to that.In addition to the alleged bank fraud, the midfielder was also a victim of a violent crime in June when his 255,000 watch was stolen in Cannes. The incidents come during a mixed period on the field for the star, who has made 100 appearances for Tottenham but has been largely frozen out since August, and sustained an injury while on duty for Mali last month. The post Premier League footballer Yves Bissouma allegedly r0bbed of over 800,000 appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
