This allowed the player to participate in youth teams well into adulthood.
FIFA and UEFA have not yet addressed the situation.
Details: The Portuguese newspaper Publico reports that Alamara Djabi, who will turn 19 on September 28 this year, has misrepresented his age and name.
According to the report, the player’s actual name is Alamara Viriato, and he was born in 2000, not in 2006 as stated in official records.
This indicates that the midfielder is six years older than documented. If this information is accurate, Viriato was playing for Midtjylland’s under-19 team at the age of 25.
Currently, there has been no response from UEFA or FIFA. If the case escalates to these governing bodies, the player may face serious repercussions.
