A newspaper claims to have information about corruption at the highest level of English football which will be released this week.

The Daily Telegraph have claimed that they will release details of corruption at the highest level of English football over the coming days.

The newspaper have already released a secret filming of England boss Sam Allardyce in which he claims that he can offer advice on how to "get around" FA transfer rules on third-party ownership of players.

However, they have now revealed that further allegations will follow throughout the week after a year-long investigation into corruption.

The paper claims that it will detail how the assistant manager of a high-profile football club accepted a £5,000 cash "bung", how 10 managers were named by players' agents as taking bribes to fix player transfers and how two well-known managers discussed becoming ambassadors for the same fictitious firm as Allardyce.

The report also says that they have received information of another high-profile manager admitting that his players broke FA rules by betting on their own games, but failed to report it, in addition to a senior figure at a Premier League club helping undercover reporters to formulate a plan to bribe managers.

The FA are reportedly considering sacking Allardyce just two months into his tenure following the allegations.
