Same. Maybe I’m still stuck on older stories but I assumed most were naturalized citizens - especially with wanting to perform well in WC22.

Maybe they have some better coverups/practices now. I have very little doubt corruption is involved somewhere but they are a good team.

Not usually good when Wiki has a section on the subject. Think I remember them offering $1M+ to some Brazilians way back. Can’t imagine the going rate now (plus…perks).
