Hoeness blasts FIFA

The Bayern Munich president blasted FIFA’s choice of World Cup hosts for 2018 and 2022, accusing them of being obsessed with money and ruining the image of the game.

“Apparently, a bid nowadays can only be successful if payments are additionally made under the table. One scandal comes on the heels of another.”

Hoeness went on to say that it was up to the big football nations such as England, Germany, Spain and France to reform the way the game is run.
