World Cup shirt auction: less than 380,000 euro to Qatar migrants, but a large part to auction company

Through the auction, the Orange players hoped to contribute to improving the situation of the workers in the host country of the global final round.

Nine months after the online auction of the shirts worn by Dutch players during the World Cup in Qatar, not a cent has ended up with migrant workers in the country, as promised by the KNVB. According to FNV, which was called in to arrange this, the amount received is also much lower than the promised 380,000 euros. The union confirms this to this news site.

Ruim negen maanden na de veiling van shirts die spelers van het Nederlands elftal op het WK in Qatar droegen, heeft nog geen cent van de bijna 380.000 euro opbrengst de arbeidsmigranten bereikt. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek van RTL Nieuws.
