Dinamo of Bucharest signed with Portuguese Edgar Ié in February this year, and three months later it was discovered that his twin brother Edelino was actually on their team.

In Romania they are investigating whether football player Edgar Ié has forced his twin brother Edel to play five matches instead for Dinamon Bucharest, who is fighting for survival.

Edgar Ié signed for Dinamon in February, but apparently the player who arrived in Bucharest was his twin brother Edelino. The case of identity change was discovered by journalist Daniel Sendra, who reported that Dinamo of Bucharest was surprised because Edgar Ié did not speak English well and communicated only in Portuguese, even though he had previously played in Spain, France, Turkey and the Netherlands.

I think it's surreal. I started calling, talking to my friends and the news is real, I couldn't believe it. No one denied it. I heard he has a twin brother who also plays football”, said Florin Pruna, former player and former president of Dinamo.

Romanian journalist Emmanuel Rossu announced that Dinamo asked suspects Edgar Ié to show the driver's license, which he refused to do.

If the change of identity is officially confirmed, Dinamo of Bucharest risks losing the eight points won in the five matches Edelino played instead of Edgar Ié.

A source from the Romanian Football Federation explained for iAMsport that there are no scenarios planned for this situation. If the player who played it isn't the one who enrolled, there could be sanctions.
