Croatian Football Federation vice president jailed

Croatian Football Federation vice president Zdravko Mamic has been sentenced to six-and-a-half years in prison for corruption.

Mamic was found guilty of siphoning of millions of euros in transfer fees when he was an executive at Dinamo Zagreb.

Among the ex-Dinamo players caught up in the trial is Croatia captain Luca Modric, who was charged with perjury.

The scandal was brought on to the international stage in 2016 when Croatian football supporters threw flares on the pitch at the Euro 2016 championships in France.
