Qatar will pay for some football fans' flights and hotels at the World Cup - as long as they promote the tournament online and report "offensive" social media comments, according to reports.So-called fan leaders will get the free trip to the biggest event in football next month, in exchange for promoting the World Cup on social media.
In a code of conduct for fan leaders, Qatar's organising committee added: "We are not asking you to [be] a mouth piece for Qatar, but it would obviously not be appropriate for you to disparage Qatar [or] the Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy".If fan leaders do not comply with the code of conduct, the organisers can tear up their agreement.
"In addition, we will regularly appear on squares in our orange shirts and we participate in the supporters' World Cup, in which fans play five against five." Both Prince William and Sir Keir Starmer, both keen football fans, have said they will not travel to the World Cup because of Qatar's shoddy human rights record.
Protests have been held over over poor conditions for migrant workers and the country's criminalisation of same-sex relationships.
