Former Arsenal striker Gervinho is in
trouble after allegedly trying to
smuggle a woman on a private jet
from his native Ivory Coast.
The player, who now plies his trade
in Italy for Serie A side Roma, had
just taken part in his country’s home
defeat to Democratic Republic of
Congo.

Footballgossip.org.uk quotes an
Ivorian website, Imatin, as saying
that Gervinho had hired a private
jet for his trip back to Italy.

According to Imatin, the striker had
managed to bribe his way through
immigration and had gotten the girl
onto the plane.
However the pilot of the plane
stubbornly declined to take off with
the unaccounted for passenger and
she had to disembark.

Four airport officials at the Abdijan
airport have since been sacked over
the incident.
