Eight Premier League managers accused of receiving bungs in English football corruption investigation

The investigation of corruption into English football has continued with allegations that eight current and former Premier League managers were the beneficiaries of 'bungs'.

The Daily Telegraph's ongoing findings claim that some top-flight bosses have received these payments for player transfers.

The news follows the publication's disclosures about Sam Allardyce's conduct during his short reign as England manager.
