Who is connected to whom

There is no single network diagram of this record, and there deliberately never will be. A map that joined everything to everything would make separate matters look like one mechanism — which is the opposite of what the evidence supports. What follows is five curated scenes, each drawn only from connections that carry a source.

Each connection is drawn according to what the record can actually bear: a solid line for a documentary relationship, a dashed line for one that is reported or unverified, and a dotted line for circumstantial connection or professional overlap. Every connection is also listed in words, with the source records it rests on. On a narrow screen the diagram is replaced by that list — nothing here requires pinching or panning.

Financial structures are mapped separately, in more detail, under financial flows.

FIFA / CONMEBOL / AFA governance

The reporting lines between the world body, the confederations and the national associations, plus the officials who held each post and when. Every line here is a governance or employment relationship on the public record.

What this scene does not say. A governance line is a reporting relationship, not an allegation. Holding an office says nothing about conduct in it. The U.S. Soccer intermediary between Concacaf and MLS is not separately represented as an entity.

On a narrow screen this scene is presented as a stacked list rather than a zoomable diagram, so nothing here requires pinching or panning. The list below is complete: it carries every connection, its evidence class and its source records.
