Franz Beckenbauer called for the corruption report on the 2018 and 2022 World Cup host contests to be published and said on Tuesday he took no bribes before voting.
The former Germany great left FIFA's executive committee months after the vote in December 2010 gave Russia the 2018 event and Qatar the 2022 tournament.
Beckenbauer remains active in FIFA but was briefly banned in June by the ethics committee from all soccer-related activity for failing to cooperate with prosecutor Michael Garcia's corruption investigation. The suspension was lifted after 'The Kaiser' pledged to answer the questions put to him.
