Court documents have revealed two more Macarthur FC players were allegedly involved in the scandal which saw club captain Ulises Davila, as well as Clayton Lewis and Kearyn Baccus, arrested and charged with bet-fixing.
Kearyn Baccus became the first of three Macarthur FC players to face court over alleged bet-fixing in the A-League on Thursday, with documents revealing two other teammates were also allegedly involved in the scandal, taking the total to five.
On Thursday, Baccus became the first of the trio to front a hearing over the charges, appearing at Campbelltown Local Court and sitting silently as his lawyer addressed the room. Matthew Millar and Jed Drew are accused of involvement in the group, although neither has been arrested or charged by police.
"Following the court appearance of player Kearyn Baccus this morning, Football Australia acknowledges the enquiries regarding the potential involvement of other Macarthur FC players in the betting allegations, specifically, enquiries have been made about players Jed Drew and Matthew Millar," the statement said.
