Former Liverpool and England striker Emile Heskey has been thrust into the spotlight regarding a multi-million-pound legal battle over a business deal described as "fraudulent". The retired forward was the prominent face of a £15 million proposal from British businessman Craig Gabriel to acquire a significant stake in the Cypriot top-flight side Apollon Limassol.
