Wang Xiaoping, director of the CFA's
disciplinary committee, is suspected of "severe law violations"
and Huang Song, head of the competition department, is being
probed for "severe law and rule violations", the General
Administration of Sport said.
It did not provide further details about the investigation or
the alleged charges.
Reuters has sought comment from the CFA.
Wang and Huang are the latest high-profile officials being
probed after a recent anti-corruption investigation of Chinese
soccer.
Li Tie, the former national team coach and ex-Everton
midfielder, CFA chairman Chen Xuyuan, and two former CFA
officials were also placed under investigation earlier this
year.
