Cameroon Elite One side Union Douala began an internal investigation into its players after some of them were suspected of match fixing. The new scandal is said to involve players and an unnamed European company.
According to Actu Cameroun, some Union Douala players agreed to manipulate the results of certain matches. The early investigation indicated that the players reached on agreement with a Europe-based sport betting company to influence the results of some games. In exchange the players would pocket a large sum of money.
The management of Union Douala have revealed that they are investigating the scandal internally. Local authorities and the Cameroon Football Federation (FECAFOOT) are said to be joining in the investigation.
The five-time Cameroonian champions are 12th after a dreadful start of the season in Elite One, Cameroon's top division league, with seven points.
