Danish goalie to play with 'criminal leash'

Table of Contents
For the first time ever in Denmark – and possibly anywhere else – a professional football player will play with an ankle bracelet monitoring his whereabouts.

The Prison and Probation Service has determined FC Midtjylland’s goalkeeper, Arek Onyszko, can serve his 30-day sentence wearing an electronic ankle bracelet monitor.

On March 2, Onyszko was arrested by Danish police with an allegation of assaulting his ex-wife.

Three months later he was sentenced to three months imprisonment by the Court of the city of Odense.

As a result of the conviction, Onyszko was released by his club Odense, but later signed for FC Midtjylland.
