World Cup Shock: Ivory Coast Star Wahi Barred from Canada—What Went Wrong?
Ivory Coast forward Elye Wahi has been denied entry to Canada ahead of their World Cup game with Germany a day after it was revealed he is being investigated for alleged spot-fixing.
Wahi started for Ivory Coast in their World Cup opener as they beat Ecuador 1-0 in Philadelphia last Sunday.
However, the Ivorian Football Federation (FIF) confirmed on Thursday that he will not be available for their second game. Wahi is the subject of an “active investigation” by French police to determine whether he deliberately obtained a yellow card in Nice’s game against Metz in May.
