Argentina Football Association Denies U.S. Court Summons for Officials Amid InquiryPreviousNext

Argentina's football association (AFA) denied reports that its president Claudio Tapia and treasurer Pablo Toviggino were summoned by U.S. courts or had their electronic devices seized. While a third party linked to the AFA was reportedly summoned to a U.S. grand jury amid investigations into commercial contracts, Tapia and Toviggino were questioned briefly by federal agents at New York's JFK Airport but were not detained or legally obligated to testify. The FBI declined to comment on the matter.
