Former Cardiff City footballer found guilty of stabbing man in back on quiet residential street

A former Cardiff City footballer has been found guilty of stabbing a man in the back in London.

Ibrahim Meite, now 25, who played for Cardiff City in 2017 before moving on to Crawley Town, was also stabbed in the incident on the morning of September 12, 2019.

During a trial at Kingston Crown Court, prosecutor Max Hardy said it was "unlikely this was a chance passing" when Meite encountered Rio Amos, 24, after driving his white Mercedes to the "quiet residential street" with Leon Hughes, 33, in the front passenger seat, MyLondon reports.
