European football’s governing body have discovered irregularities in 40 games at domestic level as well as in the Champions League.

UEFA have "solid evidence" about anomalies in league matches and qualifying for the Champions League and UEFA Cup (now the Europa League).

Dhont added that one of the clubs involved is from Belgium but would not divulge which team. He also confirmed that the investigation is finished and is the "biggest of all time."

UEFA is expected to take tough measures against teams and players who are involved in the scandal.
