A haul of fake football strips worth over £20,000 has been seized following a sting at Newcastle International Airport.
A consignment which included over 250 strips from an assortment of clubs such as Newcastle United, Liverpool and Real Madrid was seized during a random freight inspection and were found in boxes destined for an address in the west of Newcastle.
When trading standards officers called at the house, the haul was found to included some 130 Newcastle United shirts.
