Former captain of Nigeria’s U-20 national football team, Daniel Daga, has been sentenced to six months in prison in Norway after a court found him guilty of committing a non-consensual sexual act, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The midfielder, who plays for Norwegian club Molde FK, received the sentence following legal proceedings in the Scandinavian country.

Daga’s lawyer has confirmed that the player intends to appeal the verdict, maintaining that the encounter in question was consensual.

In response to the ruling, Molde FK released a statement acknowledging the court’s decision and indicating that the player will not take part in matches for the time being.

The case is expected to continue as Daga’s legal team pursues an appeal against the verdict.
