According to Serbian outlet Telegraf (h/t Marca), Bravo allegedly masterminded the attempt on Kovacevic, whom he played with at Olympiacos.
Per Ta Nea (h/t Football Espana) in early January, Kovacevic was ambushed near his home in Athens by two men. None of the bullets hit, but the 46-year-old injured himself while trying to avoid the gunfire.
Greek police reportedly found a burnt-out vehicle that may have been used in the attack, per Ta Nea.
In May, Servimedia (h/t Marca) reported Bravo was among those arrested in a match-fixing scandal and was allegedly the ringleader. Shortly after, El Mundo (h/t Marca) reported he was involved in an attempt to threaten Huesca president Agustin Lasaosa over €100,000.
The 38-year-old won two La Liga titles and a UEFA Champions League with Real Madrid and also spent time with Leeds United.
