Goals said earlier this month that it would delist its shares from London's AIM market in September after an investigation into its accounting uncovered "improper behaviour" going back almost a decade and made it impossible to file last year's accounts on time.

The company, in which retail tycoon Mike Ashley's Sports Direct holds a stake of almost 19%, had said that its audit for full-year 2018 had been suspended and that its shares would stop trading on the index from Sept. 30.

FCA and Goals were not immediately available for comment on Sunday.
