A group of international lawyers has filed a formal complaint to FIFA claiming the soccer body is failing to uphold its human rights policy with 2034 World Cup host Saudi Arabia.

Fifa are failing to follow their own human rights rules by holding the 2034 World Cup in Saudi Arabia, a group of leading lawyers have alleged. The group, which includes Fifa’s former anti-corruption adviser Mark Pieth, have filed a 30-page complaint via Fifa’s official grievance portal and called for action in five key areas.
