Yes, you read that right
UEFA have reportedly been forced to replace the VAR officials for Rangers' upcoming clash versus Dynamo Kyiv at a short notice - due to the fact that the men have been arrested for stealing a road sign whilst drunk.
With the Rangers team already in Poland, Phillipe Clement's side are due to play their Champions League third qualifying round first leg.
The game is being played in Lublin, Poland, whilst Rangers are hosting next week's second leg at Hampden Park.
TVP Sport have reported that the pair of officials in question were arrested at 2am, having been caught by police stealing a road sign whilst drunk.
Bartosz Frankowski and Tomasz Musial were reported as two of the three people, with the former due to serve as VAR and the latter being his assistant.
They have now been replaced with Tomasz Kwiatkowski and Pawel Malec.
