Quincy Promes was sentenced to six years in prison in the Netherlands for drug smuggling. Now the 32-year-old has been arrested in Dubai - but for a different offense.
Promes and his co-defendant and uncle, who has already been convicted, are said to belong to a network of drug traffickers. In another case, Promes is said to have stabbed a cousin in the knee with a knife at a family celebration in July 2020, seriously injuring him. He is currently under contract with Spartak Moscow and previously played for Ajax Amsterdam.
