Domenico Scala, the independent chairman of FIFA’s audit and compliance committee, on Thursday unveiled an aggressive eight-point plan for reform that he has presented to the organization’s powerful executive committee. The proposals, he said, offered top FIFA officials a chance to enact meaningful reforms for world soccer’s governing body as it navigates corruption investigations in the United States and Switzerland.
Mr. Scala said that some of the measures he suggested could be adopted directly by the executive committee, which next meets in Zurich in two weeks. Other measures would need to be voted on by the FIFA congress, which has representatives from all 209 member nations.
