Former FIFA vice-president Jack Warner has told The Times that the Garcia report into corruption around the 2018 and 2022 World Cup bids is "not even worth the paper it has been written on" and questioned why U.S. Soccer was absolved after he and Sepp Blatter met President Barack Obama.
The report, produced by American lawyer Michael J. Garcia in 2014 but only released in full this week, said the England 2018 World Cup bid team was found to have "accommodated or at least attempted to satisfy the improper request" of executive committee members, including Warner, ahead of the voting in 2010.
