New blow to FIFA

When he took over as presidency at the end of February, Giani Infantino promised a clean FIFA with all the manipulation work part of its history. But today a main member of the ethics committee is being internally investigated for links with a former vice-president and corrupt football official.
Uruguayan lawyer Juan Pedro Damiani and his firm supply legal assistance for off shore companies linked to Eugenio Figueredo. His countryman, Fugueredo, was arrested last May in Zurich and was charged with fraud, money laundering and bribery.
All this high football officials have played its role in FIFA by damaging the organization millions and millions of euros with alleged cases of corruption, but who guarantees for the ethics committee members and are they reliable enough and honest?
