Madrid paid five million for him in 1999 and he is now a socialist at 'El Chiringuito de Jugones'.
The former player of Real Madrid Edwin Congo has been arrested in Madrid on Tuesday morning by the agents of the Central Narcotics Brigade during an international operation against cocaine traffic in which others have been arrested nine people. After giving a statement, he has been put in freedom with charges, according to police sources.
In the next few days, the former footballer will be summoned by the judge who is investigating the case, so it is suspected that his figure in the plot is almost circumstantial, according to the same police sources. The investigation of the agents is still open after the search of several houses and the first investigations.
Congo, which is now a socialist of 'The Chiringuito de Jugones', arrived at Real Madrid in 1999, coming from Once Caldas from Colombia, in exchange for five million euros, being one of the most famous signings of the season. But the striker did not fare too well in the Spanish capital, and ended up being loaned to several teams until he signed for the I raised, club in which he played for four seasons.
Later he would play at Sporting de Gijn and Recreativo de Huelva, before starting the steps towards his retirement wearing more modest jerseys, such as that of the Third Division Olympics or Benissa, of the Preferred Regional.
