The chairman of a south London football club whose owner was linked to the cricket match-fixing scandal has died.

David Le Cluse, 44, the chairman of Croydon Athletic Football Club, was found dead with a bullet wound on Saturday, in a garage in Sutton.

The club was probed for suspected money-laundering after its owner Mazhar Majeed was arrested over match-fixing allegations against the Pakistan team.

A statement from the Metropolitan Police said: "A 44-year-old man suffered what is believed to have been a gunshot wound to the head.

"The circumstances of his death are being treated as unexplained. Inquiries are ongoing."


Awful news, especially for his wife and children.
