An investigation into a "disloyal" payment of two million Swiss francs made by FIFA to suspended UEFA president Michel Platini is making rapid progress, according to a spokesman for Switzerland's attorney general's office.
Platini and outgoing FIFA president Sepp Blatter were banned from footballing activity for eight years in December after the £1.35 million payment became the subject of a Swiss criminal investigation. The money was transferred to Platini in 2011 for work the Frenchman carried out as an advisor to Blatter at least nine years previously.
Platini and Blatter have admitted that there was no written contract to cover the payment but both are contesting the bans imposed on them by FIFA's Ethics Committee.
