FIFA confirm that Mohammed Bin Hammam's appeal against a life ban for bribery will be heard on September 15.

FIFA have confirmed that Mohammed Bin Hammam's appeal against a life ban for bribery will be heard on September 15.

The ethics committee of football's world governing body handed down the ban to the 62-year-old Qatari in July.

He was allegedly responsible for cash gifts totalling around $1m to officials from associations belonging to the Caribbean Football Union (CFU) at a meeting in Trinidad on May 10.

Bin Hammam has since denied any wrongdoing and reportedly hopes to gain access to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

In a letter to the ethics panel chairman Petrus Damaseb sent this week, Bin Hammam insisted that he had not bribed anyone and claimed FIFA would never have prosecuted him if he were European.

The letter, published by Bin Hammam, stated: "I have never tried to bribe people and all the attendees of that CFU meeting are sure of this fact and you, yourself, heard this from all the witnesses that [were] brought to testify against me."
