    Finnish police have made six more arrests in a match-fixing scandal that has rocked the Scandinavian country.

    Finnish authorities pulled four foreign-born players out of Rovaniemen Palloseura’s training session today and held them for questioning, according to reports from the city of Rovaniemi.

    The National Bureau of Investigation then announced that they had detained a total of six people from across the country, with MTV3 claiming that HJK midfielder Dominic Yobe was one of the other two players taken into custody.

    The new arrests today follows the detentions of a Singaporean man who has been charged with match-fixing previously in his country of birth, and RoPS winger Christopher Musonda.

    TV channel Nelonen revealed that the probe is centered around 10 games last season and police should release more information on the investigation on Friday.
