Four heads of sports marketing companies have also been put on the list.

All six are wanted by US authorities investigating more than $150 million of bribes paid to football officials.

Warner, a former FIFA vice president, is in Trinidad and Tobago.

Leoz, an executive member, is reportedly under house arrest in his native Paraguay.

Local soccer news is that Siyabonga Sangweni and Mpho Makola will miss Orlando Pirates v AS Kaloum on Saturday.

Both are suspended and out of the CAF Confederations Cup action in Johannesburg.
