No clear statements: DFB president Wolfgang Niersbach remains declarations guilty
How credible the President of the German Football Association’s (DFB)? Wolfgang Niersbach did not answer specific questions on Sunday the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung on details of the allegations surrounding the awarding of the 2006 World Cup in Germany. To clarify the principal of the biggest football association of the world offered from Friday to Sunday evening, two press statements on behalf of the Association and the self-interview from Saturday to dfb.de on.

They are contradictory. Because these statements give the impression Niersbach had “arranged” a check with the help of staff and external experts in months and weeks. The formulations leave no doubt: “On the occasion of (…) the conjecture recurrent in the media, the DFB has dealt in recent months intern with the awarding of the 2006 World Cup.” And when he wind from a 6,7- million-euro payment received by the Organizing Committee under President Franz Beckenbauer (with his vice Niersbach), have “the DFB President” “put the notes in the summer of this year as an opportunity to order an internal investigation (…), with the assistance outside counsel. (…) A final result is not yet available to the initiated trials are ongoing. This includes the examination by the Control. “
allegations with contradictions
What to say this message on Friday morning? That Niersbach will have turned all the agents and bodies in the summer, to find out if the organizing committee, which the DFB boss belonged to owe something has whet. That would be honorable. Only knew the DFB board unaware of these activities to educate a highly controversial affair for the DFB. That in any case have two sources independently confirmed the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung. Accordingly, the management committee has been informed until Friday. Also, the Control Committee and the external firm had been commissioned on that day with investigations.

These assertions contradict the cited formulations of the DFB, which mainly refer to the President and the dual role: investigators and suspects. Niersbach had “categorically” ruled out the existence of “slush funds” and vote buying to win the World Cup bid in on Saturday conducted by the DFB interview (dfb.de): “The World Cup was not bought.” The representation to the contrary in the “mirror” should the lawyer Christian Schertz attack press release on behalf of the DFB.
DFB president can not remember
In the case of a legal dispute, it will also go to the question of whether Niersbach by the alleged payment of the equivalent of 6.7 million euros to the then Adidas- Chief Robert Louis-Dreyfus has known. This should have been repaid as a floor of a “slush fund” at the OC via Fifa in spring 2005 a loan from the French. Niersbach is on a corresponding document handwritten “Honorary RLD”, have the initials of Dreyfus added, claiming the “mirror”. The DFB president can “absolutely do not remember it.”

With that he closed on Saturday afternoon not, at least from a payment intention to RLD knowledge to have had. He had said on Friday morning in the first press release of the DFB that granted by the DFB transfer of 6.7 million euros to the Fifa “was unrelated to the already around five years earlier made the award.” How could he be so sure when he next day, the involvement in a dubious payment to Dreyfus disliked categorically? Apparently Niersbach has not found in the alleged investigation of the case since the summer of the document that mentions the “mirror”. He asks for the file.
The 6.7 million euros wants the OK Fifa have instructed for a cultural program during the World Cup. Now the DFB speaks of a possible misappropriation. By FIFA. And checks whether he can demand redress. The cultural program took place. That the millions were not repaid, is only now, ten years later, leaked. Because has been omitted as a documentation of the payment in the books? The name Dreyfus is not even mentioned in the declarations of Niersbach, whose role but not denied. The DFB will notify again only when “new facts and information arising”.
