Nothing is going well at SCO Angers this season.
Sportingly, the club occupies the place of red lantern with an impressive series of 9 defeats in a row in L1.
Behind the scenes, the situation is not much better.
The headquarters of the Maine-et-Loire training was the subject of a search this Tuesday morning according to information from Ouest-France.
The investigation is being carried out by the SCCJ (Central Races and Games Service), which has been commissioned by the Bobigny prosecution.
This investigation would follow that carried out on June 14 that we had revealed in our columns.
The SCO and AS Saint-Étienne were then the subject of a search of their premises by the judicial police because the two clubs were suspected of maintaining hidden financial links with agents.
A preliminary investigation had been opened for acts of illegal exercise of the profession of sports agent and aggravated money laundering.
Three unlicensed officers were taken into custody.
Jalal Benalla, who was not at the club at the time (he has since been integrated into the recruitment cell), was also heard in June, then released without any charge being brought against him.
Other agents, not licensed in France, were targeted by suspicions of illegal exercise of the profession in the context of player transfers and aggravated money laundering.
They would evolve at the confluence of the world of football and organized crime.
