Gainsborough Trinity have gone public to condemn an impostor who has been contacting players while falsely posing as the club's manager, according to BBC News.

The non-league side say the individual has been approaching footballers under the pretence of representing Trinity, though no further details on the impostor's identity or motive have been disclosed.

While light on specifics, the club's statement serves as a warning to players who may be contacted by someone claiming to speak on Gainsborough Trinity's behalf, urging caution until more information emerges.
