Homes, cars, 11 rare timepieces and his wife's jewels: it took a top-dollar personal property roundup to raise the $10 million bond US authorities sought for former FIFA vice-president Jeffrey Webb.
Documents released on Sunday showed Webb used items, such as a 2014 Range Rover apparently owned by his doctor wife, Kendra Gamble-Webb, to make bond after he pleaded not guilty in US court a day before in connection with a massive international corruption scandal.
He is the first former official from soccer's governing body to appear in a New York federal court in connection with the sweeping investigation by US prosecutors that has rocked world soccer.
