PSV Eindhoven involved in betting probe
Dutch club PSV Eindhoven are being investigated by UEFA over alleged match-fixing in a Champions League qualifier.
UEFA have opened an investigation into allegations that PSV Eindhoven were involved in match-fixing in a Champions League qualifier against Benfica in 2018.
The allegations were first made by a former PSV player, who claimed that the club had paid Benfica €2 million to lose the match.
UEFA have since confirmed that they are investigating the allegations, and have requested information from PSV Eindhoven.
PSV Eindhoven have denied the allegations, and have said that they are cooperating with UEFA's investigation.
The allegations come at a time when UEFA are cracking down on match-fixing in football.
In recent years, UEFA have introduced a number of measures to combat match-fixing, including a new reporting system and a dedicated anti-match-fixing unit.
UEFA have also worked with national football associations to implement new regulations to prevent match-fixing.
The allegations against PSV Eindhoven are a reminder that match-fixing is a serious problem in football.
UEFA are committed to tackling match-fixing, and will continue to investigate any allegations of wrongdoing.
