The Home Office could attempt to deport Boris Becker from the UK under a law targeting foreign offenders, immigration lawyers have said.
The former Wimbledon champion was given a two-and-a-half year prison sentence last month for hiding assets to avoid paying debts.
Becker has lived in the UK for a decade but is not believed to hold British citizenship, meaning he could be subject to legislation targeting foreign national offenders.
