The Chinese Football League champion Gwangju Evergrande has decided to cancel the contract of international winger Yu Hanchao, who will also spend 15 days behind bars, after he was seen replacing the license plate of his SUV.
Gwangju, who is supervised by 2006 Italian World Cup champion Fabio Cannavaro, said the 33-year-old had "seriously violated" the club's strict discipline principle.
And the police in the southern city imposed a fine of five thousand yuan (700 dollars), added 12 points to the Yu license, and will be placed for 15 days in "administrative detention".
Gwangju's decision to give up Yu and arrest him by the police came after a snapshot of the day before yesterday, in which he seemed to replace the letter "A" with the letter "F" on his car's license plate for reasons that were not immediately clear.
"The traffic police in Gwangju have found work in violation of the Traffic Safety Law, using a modified car plaque," police officials said in a statement on the parallel website of Weibo to Twitter in China. After the investigation and the collection of evidence by the traffic police in Gwangju, the perpetrator, whose name is Yu, admitted the unlawful facts. ”
Yu was crowned the Chinese league title five times with Gwangju, in addition to the AFC Champions League title, and he has so far played 59 games with his country, scoring nine goals.
