Mohamed Bin Hammam to fight Fifa claims of financial mismanagement

Mohamed bin Hammam intends to fight to clear his name after Fifa opened investigation proceedings against him over alleged financial mismanagement.
World football's governing body is looking into the Qatari adminstrator's time as Asian Football Confederation (AFC) president.
The one-time Fifa presidential candidate saw a bribery ban overturned in July due to insufficient evidence.

But he was suspended for 90 days by Fifa, extending an 30-day AFC ban.
Bin Hammam was accused of attempting to buy votes ahead of last year's Fifa presidential election.
Fifa had banned him from "any kind of football-related activity at national and international level for life".
