Six FIFA executives "to fight extradition" after Wednesday arrests

Six of the FIFA executives arrested in Zurich on Wednesday say they will fight extradition to the United States where they face fraud and racketeering charges.


In total, fourteen people have been indicted by the US Department of Justice, which says FIFA has engaged in "rampant corruption" stretching back more than 2 decades.
