The regional court of northern Navarra says a former president of Spanish club Osasuna and two other ex-board members have been arrested. The court says Miguel Archanco, Txuma Peralta and Angel Vizcay were arrested on Thursday by National Police and will likely have to appear before a judge within 24 hours. All three are expected to remain in custody until Friday morning. The arrests come as police investigate the disappearance of at least 2.4 million euros ($2,746,000) from the club's coffers between November 2013 and June 2014. Current club director Pedro Baile has acknowledged a government sports council audit last year uncovered an unaccounted-for payment made by the club.
