One of the hallucinatory stories in world football last year returns to the headlines. In December 2020, it was reported that Quincy Promes, who was then an Ajax player, was arrested after stabbing a relative during a family meal in May. Today (Thursday) it was reported that the 29-year-old player, who has 50 appearances in the Netherlands national team uniform, will be charged with attempted murder.
According to reports in the Netherlands, Fromm, who is playing at Spartak Moscow these days, stabbed his cousin in the knee during a family meal for unclear reasons. The assailant, by the way, approached authorities only in November, six months after the bizarre incident.
In terms of representing the team, the player made his last appearance in the orange uniform in a loss in the quarterfinals of the Euro to the Czech Republic. Immediately afterwards, Louis van Gaal was appointed coach and decided that a player has no place on the team: “When a player is involved in such a case, it is much harder for him to concentrate on the game. When he is in Russia it is completely different than when he is in the Netherlands and close to everything. I don’t think I can summon players who are involved in such matters. ”
The winger joined the Russian team in February this year, after the incident, and even shows great ability with five goals in 13 appearances. It will be interesting to see what happens next and whether he gets to continue playing football, when at the moment it is still unclear when the proceedings in which he will be charged with attempted murder will begin.
