Former Real Madrid defender and Leeds loanee Raul Bravo has been sent to prison by a judge probing an alleged match-fixing scandal.

The 38-year-old Spaniard and Malaga-born retired footballer Carlos Aranda, who played for a string of clubs including Villarreal and Granada, were both told they were being sent to a local jail after appearing in court in the northern Spanish city of Huesca on Thursday.

But both men were given the chance of recovering their freedom if they paid a £88,275 (€100,000) bail bond each.
