Former Blackburn Rovers keeper declared bankrupt (From Lancashire Telegraph): "BLACKBURN Rovers legend Brad Friedel has been declared bankrupt after racking up debts at his US football academy.
The former goalkeeper and fans' favourite owes the backer of his Ohio-based academy almost £5million, prompting a hearing at a county court in Britain.
A judge at Macclesfield County Court declared Friedel, who left Ewood Park for Aston Villa in 2008, bankrupt after representations from bank RBS Citizens.
However, a source close to Friedel, 39, labelled the bankruptcy order a ‘technicality’ and said it would be annulled at a further hearing next week.
The former USA international is expected to repay the £5million, appeasing RBS Citizens, the American subsidiary of the government-owned British bank."
