CONCACAF ends partnership with Traffic Sports

Executives from the marketing were indicted in May for alleged bribery and kickbacks to FIFA officials.

One day after instituting extensive reforms, CONCACAF made another big change on Tuesday, announcing it had cut ties with embattled marketing firm Traffic Sports USA.

In a statement, CONCACAF said: “CONCACAF and Traffic Sports USA have decided to part ways and dissolve their commercial rights agreement." The confederation added that the decision was "mutual".

Miami-based Traffic Sports USA and Brazil-based parent Traffic Group have been under fire after being heavily involved in the U.S. Department of Justice's indictment of FIFA.
