Spanish Football Federation Returns €1.2M In Public Funding To CSD

The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) returned a sum of €1.2M in public funding that it received in '10 from Spain's Superior Sports Council (CSD), according to EL MUNDO. The RFEF "returned the money because it was not used for the reasons mentioned in the RFEF's request for funding." It was reported in October that the federation "kept the majority of the money, which was meant to create a children's football school in Haiti that was never built." The RFEF's "failure to justify how it spent the funds" led the CSD to demand that the RFEF return the €1.2M, plus €300,000 ($321,900) in interest (EL MUNDO, 1/24).
