Corrupt chairman of the bid committee for the 2022 World Cup asked for favors

Harold Mayne-Nicholls, FIFA's prayer committee chairman, asked for personal favors and gifts when studying the bids. For this he has been suspended by FIFA for 7 years.

Russia and Qatar were awarded the 2018 World Cup and 2022 World Cup on December 2, 2010, after Mayne-Nicholls, among others, had studied the bids. He was already suspended in 2015, but a statement from FIFA has now come out.

The chairman is a former 44-year-old journalist. For example, he asked the country he was visiting as part of the dedication, whether his son, cousin, and brother-in-law were allowed to train with professional football players. With this, Mayne-Nicholls did not act in the interest of FIFA and was not neutral.
