FBI launches bombshell probe into Argentine Football Association’s US finances

Argentina’s football chiefs are under fresh scrutiny as the FBI reportedly probes millions flowing through the US banking system.

Federal investigators are reportedly reviewing financial records and witness testimony regarding possible money laundering or fraud concerns.

Reports claim at least $US260 million linked to AFA commercial deals moved through major US banks, as questions continue to mount.

Investigators are also reportedly examining another $US57 million in transfers that allegedly lacked a clearly identified purpose.

The inquiry remains in its early stages, with no charges filed and no findings of wrongdoing against the AFA or those involved.
