Former Dutch international Quincy Promes prosecuted for drug trafficking

Spartak Moscow’s Dutch forward Quincy Promes is being prosecuted in the Netherlands for his alleged involvement in drugs trafficking, Dutch prosecutors said on Tuesday.

The 31-year-old is suspected of having been involved with smuggling 1,360 kilos of cocaine in two shipments in 2020.

Former Ajax Amsterdam and Sevilla winger Promes, who was capped 50 times for his country, is also facing charges of assault in the Netherlands, after he was arrested in connection with a July 2020 stabbing in the Dutch town of Abcoude.

It later emerged that the alleged victim was Promes’ cousin and the incident took place in a fight after a family party. Promes has denied involvement.

A hearing in this case is also scheduled for Monday.
