Mystery European club ‘run by criminals’, says expert

A professional football club in Europe is being run by criminals, the former chief executive of the European Professional Football Leagues has alleged.

Emanuel Medeiros made the claim at the Soccerex Global Convention in Manchester, then expanded on it after the debate, but would not name a specific club he was referring to.

“I believe there is a professional club in a professional league in Europe that is being run by criminals. I have reasons to believe that has been the case,” Medeiros said.
