imagePARIS: World football's governing body FIFA on Monday provisionally banned a trio of the sport's officials including CONCACAF secretary-general Enrique Sanz from involvement with the game.

Sanz was banned "from carrying out any football-related activities at national and international level" on the basis of investigations carried out by FIFA's Ethics Committee and in the wake of corruption charges filed by US authorities, FIFA said.

Colombian-American sports executive Sanz had already been placed on an immediate leave of absence from CONCACAF.

Sanz is a vice president at Traffic Sports USA, whose president, Aaron Davidson, was among the sports marketing executives charged in the scandal.

Embattled FIFA executive committee members Jeffrey Webb and Eduardo Li were also "provisionally dismissed" Thursday by CONCACAF.

The Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Football Association (CONCACAF) dropped Webb, its president and president of the Cayman Islands football association, and Li, an executive committee member and Costa Rica's football federation president, after they were among FIFA officials charged with racketeering, wire fraud and money laundering conspiracies on Wednesday.

FIFA's Ethics Committee, in a separate statement, also banned Jean Guy Blaise Mayolas and Badji Mombo Wantete of the Congolese Football Association (FECOFOOT) from football-related activities.

"The decision was taken at the request of the chairman of the investigatory chamber, Dr Cornel Borbely, based on the fact that various breaches of the FIFA Code of Ethics appear to have been committed by said officials," FIFA said in a statement.
