Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Vladimir Stojković is having a very busy week indeed. The 33 year old has just become a dad for the second time, with reports in Serbia that the Forest player ‘wept with joy’ when informed he was the father of baby boy.
Stojković thought it was a good idea and an investment for his children’s future, but ended up finding himself €350,000 out of pocket, and without any land to show for it.
The victim of a scam, the Nottingham Forest player did the right thing and went to the police. Stojković is quoted by Kurir as saying: “I’m embarrassed because of what happened. I believed that the people who advised me to invest in that land were serious. Finally, I spoke to the police.”
The land wasn’t the fraudsters to sell, and documents given to Stojković were not sufficient to mean he then owned the land.
