Former Everton striker Lacina Traore has been accused of playing under a wrong birth certificate.
Traore has been accused of having changed his name and age over 10 years ago by an Ivorian football club president.
Ibrahim Kone, the President of Etoile Sportive d'Abobo, claiming that the Monaco man changed his identity over a decade ago.
"In 2005, I recruited Lacina Traore who was then called Traore Menene," Kone told French radio station RFI.
"Then, he was signed by Stade d'Abidjan. And to my great surprise, he had changed his age and his first name.
"This problem has persisted for 13 years…it is not fair from in a sporting sense and this is why I am bringing a legal case against him.
“I know a lot of things that can prove that he did indeed play for our club. We need to find a solution. I am waiting for the federation to repair this injustice. If this is not resolved, I will take my case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport."
Traore now plays for Amiens, on-loan from AS Monaco.
