FUNNY: A football club transfers a player basen on a false article on Wikipedia!

in #funny7 years ago

Wikipedia is a source of information that is often used to search for something online but is not 100 percent trustworthy.

This encyclopedia is maintained by all network users and this sometimes brings false data or false profiles.

And in this pitfall, Panevezys' Lithuanian team has fallen, believing they have signed with Barkley Miguel-Panzo.

In fact, the club paid a lot of money hoping to have transferred an attacker who scored 45 goals in 36 matches for Queens Park Rangers between 2010 and 2012, while having scored three times for Angola in the 2015 African Cup.

But the transfer was not as hoped for because someone had forged the player's profile on Wikipedia.

It is not known whether any attacker's friend changed the information when he learned about the club's interest, but Barkley Miguel-Panzo did not play for QPR, nor did he ever play with the national team.

He turned out to be a reserve of US Orleans, the second French team and Syrianska, Sweden's first-ever squad.

The truth is that the Lithuanian league does not have any superior advantage over the categories where the Angolan player played, but the reality is that FK Panevezys believed in the data of Wikipedias.
