BERNE (Reuters) - Football's governing body FIFA is investigating whether any ethics rules were broken when members of its executive committee received commemorative watches from sponsors of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) at the World Cup.
"The CBF distributed commemorative watches at the FIFA World Cup in Brazil from their own sponsor (as part of the association's centennial celebrations) to various people, including the members of the FIFA executive committee," said football’s governing body in a statement.
