Namibia players have claimed they were approached to fix their final group match at the Africa Cup of Nations.

They say they were offered $30,000 per player to throw their game against Guinea in Sekondi on Monday.

Namibia Football Association president John Muinjo said his players spoke to him and he informed the Confederation of African Football (Caf).

The incident follows an alleged approach to Benin coach Reinhard Fabisch before the tournament.

Fabisch said the man claimed to represent a company based in Singapore that was be able to fix football matches across Africa.

Although Namibia have only a slim mathematical chance of progressing at the tournament, Muinjo said that the players did not consider taking the money.

"My players were approached by a man saying he represented a syndicate and offered them money to lose the game," he said.

"The players came to me immediately to tell me and we've informed CAF of what has happened.

"The players were offered up to $30,000 to lose the game.

"They were offered half in advance but told they had to be able during the game to manipulate the score on the instructions of the syndicate."

Muinjo said he had immediately called a meeting with the squad, warning them of the dangers of bribery.

"I'm very proud that my players came to see me straight away.

"I warned them about the impact accepting these sorts of offers could have on their careers.

"They are a team who believe in fair play."

Caf officials say that an investigation into the matter has been started.
