Blue Eye for the Kaiser: Franz Beckenbauer is his personal “Fifa affair” around its voting the controversial World Cup Award 2018 Russia and 2022 to Qatar escaped with a small fine and a warning. The 70 years old former official of the Football World Association has for its “lack of cooperation” only 7,000 Swiss francs pay (equivalent of around 6300 euros).
Because “Mr. Beckenbauer” after initial refusal had “subsequently showed a willingness to cooperate,” the punishment fell out so low, said the adjudicatory chamber of Fifa ethics committee with.
Last Fifa judge had not done before the big names halt: FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter (79), his Secretary General Jerome Valcke (55) and Uefa president Michel Platini (60) were for coming years due to other, more serious offenses withdrawn from circulation.
Beckenbauer and the English questionnaire
Beckenbauer, sat from 2007 to 2011 in the Fifa Executive Committee and has supported the World Championship Award in December 2010, had been provisionally closed already on 13 June 2014 for 90 days because he had not responded to the questions of the investigating chamber. The ban was lifted back on June 27, 2014. At that time the emperor had pointedly omitted a trip to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, he spoke of an “April Fool”.
His insufficient Reviewed cooperation with the ethicists explained Beckenbauer then those mentioned in English only questions of then chief investigator Michael J. Garcia (USA). The Commission said on Wednesday from a requested personal interview and written questions in German and English.
Beckenbauer had only a short time after the contract for Russia a representative get -Task the Russian energy giant Gazprom. Also in relation to Qatar the emperor had business interests have been subordinated.
World Cup 2006 not subject to punishment
the WM affair in 2006, is entangled presumably deep into Beckenbauer played in the pronounced sanction not matter how the ethics committee expressly emphasized. However, it is certain that the German scandal will also be illuminated in the current year by the Ethics hunters. Investigators are expected to be active after the publication of the report Freshfields (March 4).
At least the opening of a formal procedure against the former president the German Football Association (DFB), Wolfgang Niersbach, who was sitting with OC President Beckenbauer in the World Cup organizing committee, the ethics Commission must make public as Niersbach as German representatives still sitting in Fifa ExCo.
