The hearing is expected to now hold at the CAS Court Office in Lausanne, Switzerland on the 3rd of February 2021.
CAS first wrote to Siasia on the 27th of December 2019, inviting him and FIFA representatives and their witnesses to appear at the hearing,
In August last year, FIFA, pronounced a life ban from all football activity on the former Super eagles player and coach saying he had been found guilty of accepting an offer to receive bribes in order to manipulate matches.
