FIFA’s adjudicatory chamber of the Ethics Committee has banned the former executive committee member and CONCACAF General Secretary Chuck Blazer from any soccer-related activities for life.

In a statement on Thursday, FIFA’s ethics committee said that Blazer had “committed many and various acts of misconduct continuously and repeatedly during his time as an official in different high-ranking and influential positions at FIFA and CONCACAF.

“In his positions as a football official, he was a key player in schemes involving the offer, acceptance, payment and receipt of undisclosed and illegal payments, bribes and kickbacks as well as other money-making schemes,” added the committee.

Blazer, who was a FIFA executive committee member from 1997 to 2013, had pleaded guilty in November 2013 to a 10-count charge including bribery, money laundering and tax evasion. The charges carried a maximum concurrent imprisonment term of 75 years, but Blazer agreed to become an informant for the FBI and US justice department in return for immunity from prosecution.
