Former Netherlands international footballer accused of laundering millions of euros
Former professional football player Romeo Castelen is suspected of laundering 2.2 million euros. He also allegedly falsified contracts with a Chinese football club. The former Oranje international denies the accusations, his attorney said on Thursday at a hearing in the court in Zwolle. Castelen was not present in the court.

The 41-year-old was arrested at Schiphol in November 2019 with almost 140,000 euros in cash. According to the Public Prosecution Service, he was in possession of a total of more than 2.2 million euros in criminal money. He is also alleged to have laundered money by purchasing an apartment in Amsterdam.

According to the Public Prosecution Service, Castelen worked with scout Owen B. (45). They had forged receipts proving that the scout worked for the Chinese Zhejiang Yiteng Football Club. For example, Castelen allegedly received €200,000 because the club prevented relegation.

Castelen’s attorney, Evelien de Witte, claims that the suspect earned the cash by playing football, gambling in the casino, and selling watches to other professional footballers. “Is it cool to show off a lot of cash in a dressing room? Many payments are made with cash abroad, and that is on top of already established agreements,” the lawyer said.

Just imagining him as one of those guys you'd see in American movies on the street who opens his jacket and has a bunch of counterfeit watches for sale.

I had to travel to China for work and joked with my watch nerd father in law that I'd get him the cheapest Rolex knockoff I could find. My guy was selling out of a backpack rather than a trench coat. Ended up walking away because I couldn't haggle him down to a reasonable price for a joke gift that was obviously garbage.
