FIFA's ethics judge just resigned after being named in the Panama Papers

One of the world's most famous soccer stars was named in the Panama Papers
Uruguay alleges ex-FIFA vice president 'took $50,000 a month in bribes' from sports-marketing companies
Under suspicion in the fallout from the global offshore accounts investigation, Uruguayan lawyer Juan Pedro Damiani resigned as a FIFA ethics judge on Wednesday.
Damiani was already under investigation by FIFA ethics prosecutors after being identified on Sunday in a vast leak of data from a Panama law firm specializing in tax avoidance schemes which can be exploited for money laundering.
His exit, after helping to ban former FIFA president Sepp Blatter from soccer last December, damages the scandal-hit world soccer body's efforts to rebuild its image and reputation under new leadership.
