A game between Zaragoza and Levante from a few years back was supposedly fixed, with the players of Levante supposedly receiving money from Zaragoza to lose on purpose so that Zaragoza could avoid relegation. (Supposedly as in almost certainly, but we'll give the accused the benefit of doubt for now)

Now 42 people have been accused.

According to the accusation all of these 42 are responsable for match fixing. The list includes most notably Ander Herrera and Gabi, both of which played for Zaragoza at the time.

We'll see what happens.

Damn, pretty serious allegations.

Thanks for summing it up for me.

well, tbh I doubt that they'll all be found guilty

it's natural for the accusation to accuse as many people as possible... in the end I doubt there are 42 people to blame

In an on-going legal process involving Real Zaragoza (Spain), the club I was honoured to play from 12 until 22 years of age, there are 41 people cited as possible witnesses, of which I am one.
I have never had and will never have anything to do with manipulating match results.
If I am ever called to testify in any judicial hearing, I’ll be happy to attend, as my conscience is totally clear.
I love football and I believe in fair play, both on and off the pitch.

Comunicado de Ander Herrera:

En el proceso legal en el que se encuentra involucrado el Real Zaragoza, equipo en el que he tenido el privilegio de jugar entre los 12 y 22 años, mi nombre aparece entre las 41 personas mencionadas en el mismo.
Ante este proceso, quiero dejar claro que yo nunca he tenido ni tendré nada que ver con la manipulación del resultado en un partido de fútbol.
Si llegara el caso, atenderé sin problemas cualquier solicitud de declarar ante la justicia pues tengo la conciencia muy tranquila.
Amo el fútbol y creo en el juego limpio, dentro y fuera del terreno de juego.
