The soccer team is even suspected of betting fraud worth millions.
The Ilves-Kissat club, which was plagued by financial problems last season and plays at the fourth highest league level in Finland, is suspected of betting fraud worth millions, says Morning paper.
Turku Sanomat reported at the end of July that the investigation into match manipulation Francesco Baranca believed that betting fraudsters made a huge account using the Finnish football club.
Head of Veikkaus’ communications unit Tomi Auremaa told Aamulehti that Ilves-Kissat and FC Futura have been removed from the betting sites, which means that it is not possible to bet on the matches of these teams in Veikkaus services.
According to AL, the Ilves-Kissona matches have included situations that have attracted attention.
The main owner of the club Pavlo Ostrenko has denied knowing about the match manipulation and related accusations.
