Off for FIFA General Secretary Jerome Valcke: The explosions come closer – SPIEGEL ONLINE

The developments in football’s world governing body remain a crime. The Fifa announced in arid lines the dismissal of its Secretary General Jerome Valcke, who is staying at present on inspection tour in World Cup host Russia. The Fifa had “received a number of allegations of knowledge relating to the Secretary-General, and has a formal investigation given by the FIFA Ethics Committee in order,” it says.

It is the second dismissal of Valcke, he had already been fired in December 2006 as head of the then FIFA Marketing AG, because it in the affair of the sponsors Visa and MasterCard at the end of a loss of about 100 million Swiss francs had left. Half a year later, in mid-2007, President Joseph Blatter Valcke had yet returned and committed as general secretary. Now were Valcke, who has successfully been eating numerous scandals, new allegations undoing what he is said to have arbitrarily sold packages to World Cup tickets of tournaments in 2010, 2014, 2018 and 2022nd

The mafia structures and practices in the realm Fifa will therefore continue impressively demonstrated this week that began with a joint press conference of the US Attorney General Loretta Lynch and the Swiss federal prosecutor Michael Lauber. On Thursday, the Federal Prosecutor’s Office said after careful consideration of the facts, to deliver the located in Zurich in custody since May 27, 2015 the former FIFA vice-president Eugenio Figueredo to the United States.

“Confused, confused presentation”

For most of the headlines but made a bizarre press conference in Zurich, on the representatives of organizations located in Pfäffikon in the canton of Schwyz Agency “JB Sports Marketing AG” serious allegations against the incumbent FIFA President Blatter and Valcke just raised.

It’s about the lucrative trade in tickets, hotel and VIP packages for the FIFA World Cup from 2006 to 2022. In this profession Fifa executive members Jack Warner (Trinidad & amp; Tobago), whose extradition the US Department of Justice also requires demonstrably earned many millions of dollars. “JB Sports Marketing” had charged through a law firm selected journalists in a Zurich restaurant and reporters USB sticks with documents handed over:. Contracts for World Cup ticket trading, e-mails and much more

A participating journalist reports of a “tangled, confusing presentation”, but the accusations went around the world. So claims the JB staff Benny Alon, in the context of World Cup tickets had repeatedly for Blatter a bribe was demanded of two million dollars. Alon has made this statement in 2005, under penalty of perjury. At that time he led together with the Japanese Haruyuki Takahashi Manager ISE that in Germany gave the hospitality rights for the 2006 World Cup.

Takahashi is a giant of global sports marketing. He worked in leading positions for Dentsu, one of the largest advertising agencies in the world. Dentsu was one of the co-owners and founders of the marketing agency ISL, which covered the world sport with a gigantic corruption System and confirmed by a court, at least 142 million Swiss francs paid bribes mainly to Fifa officials. Takahashi was in all those years at the forefront and is one of Blatter’s friends. He is said to have called for the “bonus” for Blatter -. In return for that ISE was allowed to act the packages for the tournament in 2006

Infected Platini after the press conference

?

Alon had not given the money freely. Takahashi, who now sits on the board of the Olympic organizing committee for Tokyo 2020 and Blatter have to various media denied the allegations. Blatter sent word that the allegations were “false, malicious and defamatory”, he reserved the right actions.

Alon, that too is spicy, one of the close friends of Blatter and UEFA President enemy Michel Platini, with whom he plays golf regularly. Already made first rumors spread, according to which the assistants working for Platini could be behind the press conference in Zurich – evidence does not exist to date. On the other hand Blatter could produce material against Platini whose Fifa presidency he wants to prevent at all costs, had the newspapers “Die Welt” and “Tages-Anzeiger” recently revealed.

A suitcase full of money in Valcke optics

Valcke turn to, it shall submit an e-mail traffic close to Alon and Co. presented in Zurich, the company JB on official FIFA ticket merchant’s AG over for the World Cup tournaments in 2010, 2014 2018 and 2022 per 8,700 tickets have pledged. The profit from the business, JB and Valcke wanted to share, it was alleged. Valcke said to have even declared before the World Cup award at Qatar that Qatar getting the World Cup.

In Zurich the JB Manager Heinz Schild and Alon presented a case that should have been provided for the money transfer to Valcke. The Geldkoffer is held in the French national colors and decorated with the image of a vintage Ferrari – Valcke is French and loves his Ferraris

Adventurous, the whole thing.. Valcke was immediately deny. Enlightenment should be expected only in the context of large-scale criminal proceedings in Switzerland and the United States, received the new spectacular food. Valcke is therefore now redundant. Blatter but remains in his office at the “Home of FIFA”, although he is no longer acceptable for a long time. The explosions come closer.
