The former head of the Russian Football Union (RFU) and ex-UEFA Vice President Vyacheslav Koloskov boasted an invitation from FIFA to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
- I will be at the World Cup in Qatar. I don't know how expensive it is - I ride for free. I am going at the invitation of FIFA as an honorary member of the organization. They pay me everything - travel, accommodation and food. I will not hurt for anyone. I hope I will just enjoy the game and the atmosphere that will be at the World Cup. I will feel nostalgic for the World Cup in Russia," local media quoted the ex-official as saying.
