Now we're talking! Sing Little Birdie!

Fifa vice-president Juan Angel Napout has been extradited to the US to face corruption charges, Swiss officials said.

The president of the South American football federation Conmebol was detained in Zurich earlier this month.

Mr Napout, a Paraguayan, is accused of taking bribes worth millions of dollars linked to the sale of marketing rights to South American tournaments.

He resigned following his arrest and is currently banned from football.

Swiss justice authorities also said Eduardo Li, a former president of the Costa Rican federation who was arrested in Zurich in May, had dropped his appeal against extradition to the US.

Mr Napout was arrested at the same time as fellow Fifa vice-president Alfredo Hawit, the interim president for North, Central America and Caribbean football.

All three men are among 16 current and former senior football officials indictedon 4 December by US authorities investigating corruption in the organisation.

Yet ironically, they're saying Sheikh Salman from Bahrain is the favourite to take over.
