Claims of alleged corruption in Qatar's successful 2022 World Cup bid have been published in the German media.

The Bild newspaper says it has obtained the suppressed 2014 report authored by former Fifa independent ethics investigator Michael Garcia.

Bild's report includes details of a $2m (£1.6m) sum allegedly paid to the 10-year-old daughter of a Fifa official.

Garcia quit in December 2014 in protest at the handling of his report into the bidding process.

The American lawyer cited a "lack of leadership" as he left football's world governing body, whose executives unanimously agreed to publish a "legally appropriate version" of his report.

The report that was published by Fifa cleared Qatar of corruption allegations.

Bild says it will be publishing the full details of Garcia's report from Tuesday.

The newspaper also claims:

- Three Fifa executive members were flown to a party in Rio in a private jet belonging to the Qatari federation before the vote for 2018 and 2022 hosting rights.

- The Aspire Academy in Qatar was implicated "in a decisive manner" in "the manipulation of Fifa members who had the right to vote".

- Fifa's inquiry looked at the conduct of all nine bidding teams who were trying to win the right to stage either the 2018 or 2022 World Cup.

The final report strongly criticised the English Football Association.

Fifa said the body had tried to "curry favour" with its former vice-president Jack Warner, who quit his role in 2011 amid bribery allegations. The FA rejected the claims, insisting it "conducted a transparent bid".

French prosecutors have also been investigating the bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, and in April questioned former Fifa president Sepp Blatter "as a witness".

France's National Public Prosecutor's Office began its investigation last year.

I won't be tuning in mate that's for sure. And it's not just the rigged selection either but the slave labour going into it is like nothing I've seen in the modern world.

Totally agree it is scandalous how every FA is turning a blind eye to the use of what amounts to slave labour to build the stadiums in Qatar.

Shocking mate, hundreds dead already and foreign slave workers kept in what are basically prison camps. They've then made it basically financially impossible for most of the workers to afford a visa to leave the country.

In a report from the Qatari government, 1900 migrant workers died in 3 years up to 2014, with 7,000 estimated to die during the whole project.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/ ... d-deceived

Qatar is currently being sanctioned for allegations of sponsoring terrorism and FIFA award a world cup to a country that allows all this? Beyond belief.

The Qatar WC should be cancelled by FIFA immediately. Qatar and Russia could then have one of their own where they can bribe each other to their hearts content.
