Especially with his rippling biceps on display, he’s genuinely a solid football referee at the Qatar World Cup.

No official statements about refereeing salaries have been revealed but FIFA, it is learnt, pays each referee a basic pay of US$70,000. The assistant referees also pick up US$25,000 for their involvement.
