Even world champion coach Joachim Loew has been raised in the debate about the bribery allegations against the organizers of the 2006 World Cup in Germany behind Wolfgang Niersbach. But the problems of the DFB bosses are not small
Wolfgang Niersbach waited for his to the Enlightenment Bribery allegations to the 2006 World Cup inconclusive travel to Fifa in Zurich good news: None other than world champion coach Joachim Loew strengthened the president of the German Football Association (DFB) in the affair of an unexplained 6.7-million payment to the World Association Fifa strongly the back.
“In his word is 100 percent reliable. a better President, we can not want us. I am sure that the outstanding issues are clarified. I know that this is absolutely in . sense of Wolfgang Niersbach is He is the one who is driving this process personally, “Loew said in a broadcast by the DFB statement:” I have been more than eleven years experience the DFB now already extremely serious run association. This is what for me in the first place President Wolfgang Niersbach, to which I have the greatest confidence. “
Outright suspicion of DFB against Niersbachs predecessor Theo Zwanziger, the ominous reference to the Fifa initiated in 2005 and sharply earlier this week Niersbach had attacked, will meanwhile lead to first legal consequences. Information Sueddeutsche Zeitung reported that the corporation is now reviewing a complaint against his former boss for embezzlement because Zwanziger had caused the ominous payment to FIFA, upon request of the DFB such considerations, however, confirmed Tuesday not .
About the undoubtedly personally related feud between Niersbach and Zwanziger addition but the million payment to the Fifa appear increasingly in a questionable light. Although the sum according to previous DFB presentation was a contribution of OC to ultimately canceled opening gala declared, but the responsible for Sports Ministry of the Interior can be found, according to the Süddeutsche in his “here present documents” for the World Cup is no evidence of the payment or a planned subsidy of OK to the gala cost.
There are ambiguities appeared
But not enough – because the payments between the OC and FIFA on Tuesday appeared to further ambiguities. Evaluations of the final reports of the Federal Government and the World Federation showed in the range of Fifa grant for the World Cup-makers a difference of seven million euros. While the federal government estimated the Fifa contribution to 170 million in November 2006, has the FIFA Financial Report 2006, which was submitted in 2007, payments to the OC in the amount of 177 million euros.
Convention agree government and Fifa contrast of the notes to pro rata reimbursement of the grants after the tournament concludes: Thus, the OK repaid because of its surplus and a corresponding agreement with FIFA 40.8 million to the World Association. To finance the Artistic and Cultural Programme for the World Cup, the Ministry of the Interior wanted to make 2003-2006 a total of 29 million euros available, according to the government report. . The Fifa should have calculated for the later canceled opening gala with a cost of over EUR 20 million
Despite all the ambiguities looks Löw the entire debate foremost for a prejudgement particular Niersbach: “I think it is unfair, as was undifferentiated in recent days reported partially, what conclusions were drawn, to have present without evidence “
