FIFA said Blatter, former secretary general Jerome Valcke and finance director Markus Kattner made a coordinated effort to &ldquo;enrich themselves&rdquo; and that Swiss and US authorities were being informed.
Blatter is serving a six year suspension from football over a two million Swiss franc payment made to former FIFA vice president Michel Platini. Valcke and Kattner have both been fired in recent months over World Cup ticket scandals and payments they received.
