Freddy Rincón, the former Colombia, Real Madrid and Corinthians midfielder, is wanted for questioning in relation to drug crimes in Panama, Interpol said on Wednesday.

Rincón, 48, has allegedly been involved in money-laundering and criminal conspiracy relating to drugs, Interpol added.

Colombian media reported that Rincón has business and property interests in Panama bought in partnership with the Colombian drug baron Pablo Rayo Montaño.

Rincón made his name with América de Cali before successful spells in Brazil, Italy and Spain. He represented Colombia at the 1994 World Cup and captained Corinthians to their first World Club Cup title in 2000.
