A former Manchester City player has opened about his financial troubles as he awaits to spend two years and two months in prison.

Ex-goalkeeper Eike Immel is bound for prison after being found guilty in relation to 107 cases of fraud in August by a district court in Marburg, Germany.

According to reports from German outlet Bild, the majority of the cases centred around him borrowing money and not returning it with the figure owed reportedly £29,775. He also sold tickets to a European Championship game, keeping the money but failing to deliver the tickets.
