Anderlecht could miss out on European competition for the first time in 55 yearsBelgian giants Anderlecht and the country's football association have been raided by police in connection with a money-laundering investigation involving agents and player transfers. A spokesman for the federal prosecutor said it was not linked to the 2018 probe into match-fixing and fraud. The Belgian FA told Reuters that police had taken away documents relating to transfers from its headquarters. Anderlecht are Belgium's most successful football club, having won 34 league titles, the Uefa Cup and two Cup Winners' Cups. They are fifth in the Belgian top flight, and could miss out on qualifying for European competition next season for the first time in 55 years.
