This story is either

A bit tragic, rather funny...or alternatively really weird.

Lazio have threatened legal action against those who have questioned the legitimacy of the age of their 17-year-old Cameroonian player Joseph Minala. 

The Italian side stated that his birth certificate is "absolutely legitimate". 

Lazio added:  "We reserve the right to take action against those responsible for the protection of the good name of the company and the footballer." 

The midfielder also issued a statement via the club's website denying he told an African website he was 41.

Either 17 .... OR FORTY-FRICKIN'-ONE?!

Here's his picture...and well...people age differently and sometimes a tough life gets reflected on one's face...and uh...well...I'm certainly no expert.
