German FA hit with hefty back tax payment over 2006 World Cup

Officially, at the time the payment was made, it had been for an opening ceremony. But such a ceremony never took place and a DFB-commissioned investigation last year said the sum was the return of a loan via FIFA from former Adidas chief Robert Louis-Dreyfus.

It has never been clarified what the initial loan had been for and why it had to be paid back to the late Dreyfus via FIFA.
