DUBAI: New allegations of corruption surrounding Qatar’s 2022 World Cup bid have come to light suggesting it offered Fifa $400m 21 days before they were offered the tournament, British national The Sunday Times reported, citing leaked files.

The documents, seen by The Sunday Times, appear to reveal that executives from the Qatari state-run broadcaster Al Jazeera made the offer in a television contract which included a $100m “success fee” that would only be paid if Qatar’s bid was successful.
