BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Belgian cycling idol Eddy Merckx may face trial following an investigation of kickbacks paid for the supply of bicycles to Brussels police, a Belgian newspaper said on Tuesday.
Merckx could not be reached for comment but the 70-year-old five-time Tour de France winner was quoted by the newspaper, La Derniere Heure, as saying: "I have nothing to say. We'll see what happens."
