Uefa will not investigate the FAI’s 2019 financial scandal

Aleksander Ceferin: ‘We had discussions with the Irish FA. There was an investigation and it would have been premature to decide before. Now things are clear.’

Uefa will not be opening an investigation into the behaviours and practices which facilitated the FAI’s 2019 financial scandal, senior sources in Nyon have confirmed.

One key insider claimed that European football’s governing body is unwilling to investigate how the association was able to repeatedly misreport ‘profits’, liabilities and debts given “those responsible have left the organisation”.
