Manchester United midfielder, Ander Herrera, is being investigated for match fixing during his time in Spain.
The Spaniard was involved in a match between Real Zaragoza and and Levante back in the 2010/2011 season, and with it being the final game of the season, Herrera’s team knew that a loss would relegate them from the top-flight.
However, according to Spanish reports, Levante players were paid to throw the game so that Zaragoza could stay in La Liga, rather than be relegated to the league below.
Although it was Levante stars that were paid to throw the game, it’s believed that Herrera also took a cut but later returned it.
It’s thought that Spanish investigators will hold talks with the United midfielder in order to discuss what happened during the controversial game.
