Elye Wahi is at the heart of a rigged sports betting affair. The police suspect him of having voluntarily received a yellow card during Nice-Metz (0-0), having been alerted by suspicious bets on dedicated sites. The player was even taken into police custody before being released without any evidence being held against him. The investigation continues. Currently in the middle of the World Cup with Ivory Coast, the 23-year-old striker was the subject of a press release from his federation.
The player is also stuck in the United States and cannot accompany his team to Canada to face Germany on Saturday evening, without us really knowing if this has a link with the current investigation. As for Eintracht Frankfurt, where Wahi is still under contract, we are not worried anymore. According to the Frankfurter Rundschauthe German club considers this indication regrettable, without knowing more. Above all, management hopes that the former Montpellier player will perform well during this World Cup to increase his rating with a view to selling him.
