Controversy
In 2017, the club was purchased by a Chinese investor. This led to a flurry of seemingly irrational transfer activity and suspicions of match fixing.[1] In early 2018, the Czech Football Association reported their findings about the situation to the police and the organized crime department launched an investigation of the club and its owners.[2] On 5 February, an unnamed Mohelnice player came forward as a witness, admitting to having been complicit in fixing a Third Division match, being both blackmailed and offered bribes by a teammate to deliberately make defensive errors during the match.[3]
