Investigation

In October 2018, Myny was interviewed as part of investigations following the 2017–2019 Belgian football fraud scandal.[2][3] He was released by the investigating judge.[4][5] In May 2019, Walter Mortelmans denied that he had tried to influence Myny to distort the match in Mechelen, which had been lost 2-0.[6][7] His representative Jesse De Preter said a few days later that Myny had nothing to do with the match-fixing.[8] Three player agents were found guilty of disregarding of competition regulations in June 2019. Myny was released.[9] In July 2019, Myny's intermediary "Mortelmans" was banned for three years, two of which were deferred.[10]
