Beckenbauer banlifted by FIFA
Print Edition
FIFA has lifted Franz Beckenbauer’s ban from all football-related activity for failing to help an investigation into alleged corruption in the 2018 and 2022 World Cup votes, the German great’s manager said yesterday.
FIFA imposed the 90-day ban on June 13 at the request of ethics prosecutor Michael Garcia. Beckenbauer then pledged to answer questions put to him in German and in writing, and his manager said on June 18 that the FIFA ethics committee received his answers. Beckenbauer was a voting member of FIFA’s executive committee in December 2010 when it chose Russia as 2018 World Cup host and Qatar to stage the 2022 tournament.
