How FIFA corruption actually works, according to a soccer whistleblower
Briefly

Bonita Mersiades, a whistleblower and former FIFA official, emphasizes the persistent culture of corruption within FIFA, particularly regarding the controversial selections of Russia and Qatar for the World Cups.
In discussing her experience, Mersiades mentions how her firing in 2010 catalyzed her advocacy against the ingrained bribery and corruption in FIFA, leading to significant investigations.
Reflecting on the future of the World Cup, Mersiades warns about the implications of awarding the tournament to Saudi Arabia in 2034 and how it mirrors ongoing issues in football.
Through her book 'Whatever It Takes,' Mersiades aims to shed light on the dark side of football's governance and the systemic misogyny that pervades the sport.
