Moroccan international footballer Tareq Tissoudali has been convicted by the police and the court for a traffic violation he committed yesterday, resulting in the suspension of his driver’s license for 21 days and a fine of €400.
According to Belgian media reports, Belgian police had previously stopped Tissoudali in the “Wattern” area while he was using a mobile phone while driving, marking the fourth time he has committed the same offense.
The Belgian newspaper “La Voix” reported that the troubles for the Moroccan player continue in Belgium, following a recent war of statements he launched against the management of his club, Genk, criticizing the transfer policy adopted by the club’s officials.
Tissoudali’s latest legal entanglement adds to the woes of the footballer, who has found himself in the spotlight for reasons beyond the pitch.
The conviction not only entails a financial penalty but also deprives him of the privilege of driving for the coming weeks, highlighting the consequences of disregarding traffic regulations.
This incident comes at a delicate time for Tissoudali, whose criticisms of Genk’s management have stirred controversy within the football community.
The player’s public dispute with his club’s officials could potentially affect his standing within the team and his future prospects in Belgian football.
