Athletistic / Football. Spartak Moscow striker Quincy Promes is still in Dubai (UAE) awaiting trial. According to RIA Novosti Sport, the trial of the 32-year-old Dutchman could take place behind closed doors.

Promes was arrested by UAE border guards on February 29 at Dubai airport. Quincy intended to fly with Spartak to St. Petersburg for the RPL 19th round match with Zenit. It is not officially known why Promes was arrested in Dubai. Information appeared in the media that the Dutchman was arrested in connection with an accident that occurred during the winter training camp of Spartak in the United Arab Emirates, after which he fled the scene of the accident.

Note that on February 14, a court in Amsterdam (Netherlands) found Quincy Promes guilty of trafficking a large quantity of drugs and sentenced him to six years in prison. And in 2023, the Dutchman was sentenced to 18 months in prison for an armed attack against his cousin.

Note that without Promes, Spartak drew against Zenit with a score of 0:0. In 19 matches, the red-whites have scored 31 points and are in 1st place.
