The Swiss investigation of Germany`s World Cup organizers spun off the broader FIFA case, which was formally launched in Switzerland in November 2014.
FIFA has sent 1,300 pages of internal investigation reports into suspected bribery and corruption to Switzerland`s attorney general.
"FIFA understands and has agreed that the reports will also be made available to the U.S. authorities," FIFA said in a statement.
The documents complete a 22-month probe by legal firm Quinn Emanuel, which FIFA retained in the fallout from United States and Swiss federal prosecutors revealing their sprawling investigations of soccer corruption in May 2015.
Prosecutors using Blazer`s testimony allege the money was bribes funneled from South African organizers of the 2010 World Cup in exchange for hosting votes from CONCACAF delegates on the FIFA executive committee.
