Tottenham left-back Destiny Udogie has been revealed as the Premier League player who was threatened at gunpoint by a football agent in London.

The 22-year-old, who played in Spurs’ 4-0 win against FC Copenhagen in the Champions League on Tuesday night, is said to have been targeted while walking with a friend along Cockfosters Parade, Barnet, in September.

The agent, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested on suspicion of possessing a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence and is also under investigation over allegations of blackmail and making threats towards Udogie’s friend.

He has not been charged with an offence and was granted bail on September 9.
