FIFA's ethics investigator ordered soccer officials on Thursday to return 65 luxury watches given as World Cup gifts or risk disciplinary action.
The Brazilian federation distributed gift bags with the expensive watches at the pre-World Cup Congress, FIFA said in a statement.
They were distributed to 28 executive committee members, an official with each of the 32 teams, and representatives as well as members of the South American soccer confederation.
