Japan Football Association president Kuniya Daini said Saturday he has sent a fact-finding mission to Spain following national team coach Javier Aguirre's alleged involvement in a match-fixing scandal.
"I have sent (a mission) to Spain and from now on we will have information coming in," Daini told reporters in Kobe.
Aguirre is one of more than 40 individuals named in a report into the alleged rigging of a Spanish La Liga clash between Levante and his former club Zaragoza in May 2011.
Aguirre was manager of Zaragoza and the team won the match 2-1, avoiding relegation to the second tier as a result.
The Mexican could be asked to appear in Spain if the complaint is accepted by a Valencia court and a full-scale investigation is opened.
