The former head of the Costa Rican football federation has pleaded not guilty in the U.S. after being charged in a sprawling investigation of bribes and kickbacks involving FIFA, soccer's governing body.
Eduardo Li pleaded not guilty during an initial appearance Friday in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn.
Authorities say Li was extradited to the U.S. a week after withdrawing his appeal against being sent. He was brought to New York on Friday.
Li's attorney says his client voluntarily returned to the U.S. and intends to fight the allegations.
About 20 soccer officials have been indicted on charges stemming from the U.S. investigation of corruption in the sport.
