Simon Johnson, the chief operating officer for the England 2018 bid, who was interviewed by Mr Garcia last year, said: “This is a very disturbing piece of evidence that The Telegraph has found and it is right and proper that Fifa fully considers the evidence that has been uncovered and that any evidence which is in any way relevant to the award of the 2018 or 2022 Fifa World Cup is made available to the investigation being conducted by Mr Michael Garcia.”
