Football Association (FA) chairman Greg Dyke has revealed that he has received about six watches since he took over the England football governing body last year, in light of the controversy over Brazil's top footballing body handing out 16,000 pounds watches at this summer's World Cup.
On Sunday, FIFA faced fresh allegations of a cover-up after it emerged the report into alleged corruption during the bidding to stage the World Cup in 2018 and 2022 would never be released publicly.
Hans-Joachim Eckert, the chair of the adjudicatory chamber of FIFA's ethics committee, said that the 350-page report compiled by investigator Michael Garcia would never be published, The Independent reported.
The ethics committee has also been vocal this week on officials returning the Parmigiani watches handed out by the Brazilian Football Confederation's World Cup sponsors or face disciplinary action.
Dyke, one of the few footballing figures to condemn corruption in the international game, has already vowed to give his back. He said that he has been given about six watches since he took over at the FA and does not use any.
Dyke said that he does not like the culture of present-giving in football.
The gifts were handed to 28 members of FIFA's executive committee, 32 association chiefs and five South American associations, the report added.
