Former Brazilian national team forward Adriano could face a long prison sentence

Former Milano "Inter" and "Roma" striker Adriano is facing serious problems.

The 32-year-old Brazilian, infamous for scandalous behavior, has been accused of selling drugs in his homeland.

The footballer, who has been trying to revive his career, was close to agreeing on a six-month contract with the French second division team "Le Havre", but now his plans to play abroad will have to be put on hold.

Law enforcement officials have banned the striker from leaving the country, and if the charges are proven, he may have to spend 15 years in prison.
