The National Crime Agency in England has launched an investigation into a dubious bet against Arsenal and Leeds in the English Premier League.
The match, which took place in December, ended in Arsenal’s 4-1 victory over Leeds, with Arsenal’s Swiss Granit Xhaka being booked in the final minutes due to a waste of time despite being in the lead. to him for three purposes.
The Football Association was alerted to a suspicious betting scheme involving Xhaka’s yellow card after someone made a £ 52,000 bet on Xhaka with the understanding that he would be booked during the match. The fan wins the bet and receives £ 250,000.
Xhaka is generally considered one of the players to be periodically warned, as this season he was shown 10 yellow cards in 27 English Premier League games, and was once sacked.
