Shevchenko, who played for Milan in Italy and Chelsea in England, aims to apply lie detector tests to referees before matches to combat corruption and bribery.
In an interview with the American website “The Athletic”, he said: “We see the polygraph as an opportunity to get more information to understand which referees we can work with and which we cannot work with. »
He added: “We are introducing a mandatory lie detector test for referees… The lie detector is a proven method that produces results. “I communicate with many experts and I know that many structures in the country use these devices in their work.”
The former player, who represented his country in 111 matches, continued: “The lie detector is also a protection for the referees themselves. “When you pass the drug test, you will feel calm and will not need to prove that you are not involved in any fraud.”
Around 35 Ukrainian clubs took part in the match-fixing operation, which involved around 30 people and included 57 matches, in 2018.
Two teams have been expelled from the Champions League for attempting to bribe an official: Dynamo Kyiv in 1993 and Metalist Kharkiv in 2013.
