In one of the weirdest punishment in football history, Ajax Amsterdam striker Richairo Zivkovic has been made to work in the club's training ground car park as a parking attendant. The Dutch striker has been punished for repeatedly turning up late for training, according to reports.

"He has indeed been working as parking attendant because he was late again," confirmed his agent Sjaak Swart.

"He's learned from it. I think the punishment came directly from coach Frank de Boer."

Zivkovic joined Ajax last summer from Groningen for 3 million euros but has not played much in this campaign with just nine substitute appearances and one goal.
