Federation of International Football Association  (FIFA) has banned for life the Trinidad and Tobago football administrator, Jack Warner, over four years after he quit football.


FIFA ethics committee announced the outcome after an investigation. Warner, a onetime Vice President of FIFA is also facing criminal charges in the United States over an alleged £100 million fraud.

The ethics committee previously chose not to pursue a case against Warner, a former president of Concacaf, because he was no longer involved in football.

But a change of policy saw it go after Trinidad and Tobago’s former minister of national security, even though any ban would be merely symbolic for a man who had little prospect of returning to the game.
