Russian whistle-blower Rodchenkov cleared to speak to FIFA on players accused of doping
January 3 – Grigory Rodchenkov, the whistle-blower whose revelations led to the explosive doping scandal that rocked Russian sport, is now free to talk to FIFA about the extent to which football was involved according to agency reports.
Last week, most likely under pressure from FIFA president Gianno Infantino. Russia’s 2018 World Cup chief Vitaly Mutko unexpectedly stepped down both from that role and as head of the Russian Football Union, insisting he had done nothing wrong and was stepping aside solely in order to clear his name.
