Former Arsenal star and Ajax Marc Overmars has been given a worldwide football ban by Fifa.
The suspension was initially applied by the Dutch football authorities (KNVB) following an investigation into his behaviour towards women during his time at Ajax.
Overmars quit his role in February 2022 but has since taken over as technical director at Belgian club Royal Antwerp.
In November, he was banned from football in his homeland for one year, with a further year suspended.
The world governing body has now confirmed the suspension has been extended.
“Fifa can confirm that following a request by the Royal Netherlands Football Association (KNVB), the Fifa Disciplinary Committee has decided to extend the sanction imposed by KNVB on Mr Marc Overmars to have worldwide effect.”

It's always salacious when one speaks against the 'narrative'.

Was certainly some player with some goals in his first spell at Leipzeg.  Chelsea must be denting everyone's confidence going to them just now or recent years though.

Time for us to swoop in and prize some of there young talents away from them like we did with Djion, let’s hope he is saying good things about Rangers and telling others of his own experience playing in big matches compared to the Benches.

Former Premier League and Cameroon defender Sebastien Bassong tells BBC World Service his feelings on Andre Onana's decision to play a Manchester United match the day before Cameroon's first Afcon game: "It's out of order from both sides. It's disrespectful from Manchester United to request Onana to do such a thing and it's really low from Onana to even consider it.
"It sends such a bad message for not only Cameroon, but for the respect that people will have for Afcon and the way they should treat us. If we can't even respect ourselves, how can we expect other people to treat us any different? For me, Andre Onana is shooting us and himself in the foot.
"If I was in the squad I wouldn't be having any of that. You can't play a game the day before and think you can just fly out to the continent and play another game. Just the thought of it drives me crazy, I'm so disappointed.
"For me, you've got to teach him a lesson. I like Andre, I always have his back but when things like this happen, the pride of the country and the continent is way above an individual person. For me he should stsy home and get punished for that."
