Article from 2010, also mentions Okocha, Kanu and Martins as being debatable of age.

Found another article that suggests Freddy Adu's failure to have any real career, or indeed change physically, since his debut at 14, is attributed to a fake age, as well.

I thought the Freddie Adu one was well known. When he was 14 he was actually 18 or 19.

There's a tonne of players from around 2002-2004 that had some odd rumours circulating. That was roughly when the league went a bit batshit with its foreign signings and there was no attempt to actually check their background in any sensible way.

So, for example, Balaban had a clause in his Croat club contract that basically gave him the transfer fee and not the club he moved from. In 24 hours, he went from nothing to several times a millionaire. Is it any wonder he didn't get motivated?

Players getting niggling injuries because they bought sports cars and had to stretch to reach the pedals. Oh, and some Fulham player missing half a season because of a penis enlargement surgery gone wrong.
