SPL investigate Rangers payments

05 March 2012 16:17

The Scottish Premier League have launched an investigation into allegations that Rangers made undisclosed payments to players.

The probe, instigated at a board meeting on Monday, comes in the wake of claims from former Rangers director Hugh Adam that some payments were not included in official contracts that were registered with the SPL.

A statement from the league read: "The SPL board has instructed an investigation into the alleged non-disclosure to the SPL of payments made by or on behalf of Rangers FC to players since 1 July 1998."
