WE LOST MILLIONS

Prem aces in the red over tax scheme

- BY JEREMY ARMSTRONG

FORMER footballers say they lost millions in an investment firm investigated by the Mirror.

Ex-Premier League stars Danny Murphy, Brian Deane and Rod Wallace are among those who invested huge sums with Kingsbridge Asset Management.

Many players put tens of millions of pounds in 'tax efficient schemes' dating back to the 1990s and 2000s.

Murphy, 48, now a Match of the Day pundit, lost around £5million and suffered issues with drink, drugs and gambling as his debts spiralled and his marriage collapsed.
