Taribo West 'was 40 when he said he was 28', claims former Partizan Belgrade chief



Former Derby County, Plymouth and Inter Milan defender Taribo West has been accused of lying about his age. The former Nigeria centre half, now retired, joined Serbian team Partizan Belgrade in 2002 after leaving Derby County and told club bosses he was 28.
But now the ex-president of Partizan, Zarko Zecevic, has accused him of lying, saying the defender was actually 40.
