Former Sierra Leone captain Ibrahim Kargbo has denied being involved in match-fixing when he was playing for Dutch club Willem II in August 2009. The Dutch Football association say they have uncovered evidence he tried to fix a match against Utrecht and that they will continue their investigations. Willem lost the match 1-0, but convicted match-fixer Wilson Raj Perumal apparently refused to pay as the deal was for a loss by more than 1 goal. Kargbo is currently suspended along with 11 others by the Sierra Leone Football Association. That sanction was handed out in 2014 as they looked into whether a match against South Africa in 2008 was fixed. Kargbo has also denied those allegations. Catching up with Kargbo, BBC's Nick Cavell asked him whether the Dutch authorities had contacted him.
