The PNF informed lawyers of this decision on May 7 in a classification notice. An investigation for “criminal association” with a view to the commission of an offense of sports corruption and with a view to the commission of an offense of fraud in an organized gang was opened after the match. According to The team, which had revealed this investigation, the European football authorities (UEFA) had been alerted before the meeting of October 3, 2018 that a leader of the Red Star was preparing to invest nearly five million euros on a defeat of his team by five goals. However on October 3, 2018, the PSG had beaten the Serbs 6 to 1. “Since the start of the investigation, the Red Star has expressed its wish to collaborate in this investigation and to identify the source of this malicious and anonymous denunciation.“, Me Antoine Vey, lawyer for the Serbian club, told AFP.”It is therefore a satisfaction to note that nothing has made it possible to confirm this false allegation.“ “There remains the question of the damage caused to the club on which we will see if we take legal action or not.“, he added.
