The Australian Federal Police has raided the offices of several companies associated with businessman and Perth Glory owner, Tony Sage.
Officers spent several hours in the building which houses the Perth Glory offices as well as offices for the mining company Cape Lambert Resources.
Mr Sage is the executive chairman of the mining company which was placed in a trading halt earlier this year as it negotiated a multi-million dollar tax debt with the tax office.
It is unclear whether the two matters are related.
An AFP spokesman says a number of search warrants were executed on commercial and residential premises in Perth and Sydney today.
He says it is part of an ongoing investigation in partnership with agencies including the Australian Tax Office and Australian Securities and Investments Commission.
A spokesman for Mr Sage declined to comment.
