The Athletic: Probe into Ivory Coast star over match-fixing
The Athletic has revealed that Ily Wahi, a star player of the Ivory Coast national team, was arrested in France last May on charges of match-fixing. The investigations are linked to an attempt to obtain a yellow card while playing for Nice, just before he was set to participate with his national team in the 2026 World Cup. The inquiries are still ongoing, although he has been released from detention after questioning. The 23-year-old player faces allegations of fraud, sports corruption, and involvement in the proceeds of crime.
