TSM has terminated the contract of its LCS head of player development Peter Zhang, who previously served as the team’s head coach, after an investigation into “very serious allegations of conflict of interest and unethical practices” against Zhang.<\/p>
TSM posted a statement to its Twitter account<\/a> announcing Zhang’s departure.<\/p>
LCS Commissioner Jackie Felling said in a Reddit thread<\/a> that Zhang’s departure had “nothing to do with matchfixing,” emphasizing that this was an internal affair and not a matter of competitive integrity involving betting in any capacity.<\/p>
