FIFA vice president Juan Angel Napout has agreed to be extradited to the United States to face charges in the soccer bribery case.
Napout, who is from Paraguay, consented to his extradition at a police hearing on Tuesday, Switzerland's justice ministry said in a statement.
Of the nine soccer officials arrested by Swiss authorities since May at the U.S. Department of Justice's request, Napout is the quickest to accept extradition.
The president of South American soccer confederation had fought extradition at a hearing last Thursday, hours after he was arrested in a pre-dawn police raid at the luxury Baur au Lac hotel in Zurich.
