Where are the men who gave the World Cup to Qatar?
Wednesday 2 December 2015 15:13, UK
Five years ago on Wednesday, FIFA's executive committee voted for Russia to host the 2018 World Cup and Qatar to host the 2022 tournament.
We look at what has happened to the men who made those controversial decisions.
Sepp Blatter (provisionally suspended)
The 79-year-old has been provisionally suspended pending an ethics committee hearing into a £1.3m payment made to Michel Platini. Swiss legal authorities have opened criminal proceedings over the payment and the sale of World Cup TV rights to Jack Warner.
Michel Platini (provisionally suspended)
UEFA's president and a FIFA senior vice-president, he too is facing a possible lifetime ban from FIFA's ethics committee. The 60-year-old is insistent he will clear his name and stand in the election to succeed Blatter.
Jack Warner (banned for life)
Warner quit FIFA in 2011 after being accused of bribery during the presidential election that year. The former CONCACAF president was banned for life by FIFA in September 2015 some months after being indicted by US authorities on corruption charges. He is fighting extradition to the USA.
Julio Grondona (died)
FIFA's senior vice-president and finance committee chairman, he died in 2014 aged 82. Since his death, FIFA said he authorised a US$10m payment through a FIFA account on behalf of South Africa to Jack Warner - US justice authorities say the payment was a bribe to secure the 2010 World Cup. Has also been implicated in match-fixing in his home country Argentina.
Chung Mong-Joon (banned for six years)
The Korean billionaire, a long-time critic of Blatter's, lost his FIFA place soon after the 2010 vote. He announced he would stand for the FIFA presidency in 2016 but in October he was banned for six years by FIFA's ethics committee for his role in Korea's 2022 World Cup bid. He has claimed the ban is a move to stop him running for president.
Issa Hayatou (acting FIFA president)
The head of African football took over as acting president after Blatter was provisionally suspended. The 69-year-old, who has kidney disease, unsuccessfully challenged Blatter in 2002. His record is not blemish-free - he was reprimanded by the International Olympic Committee over payments he received from FIFA's former marketing partners ISL during the 1990s.
Chuck Blazer (banned for life)
The 70-year-old, who is seriously ill with cancer, gave evidence to the FBI about football-related corruption and World Cup vote bribes. The American, who had served under Jack Warner as CONCACAF's general secretary, was banned for life by FIFA in July 2015.
Franz Beckenbauer (under investigation)
The former Germany international is facing separate investigations - one by FIFA's ethics committee over the 2018/2022 bids and another in Germany over his role in the 2006 World Cup bid over allegations there was a slush fund set up to buy votes. Beckenbauer, 70, who has denied wrongdoing, stepped down from FIFA in 2011.
