Fifa has formally opened proceedings against Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini and hopes to give its verdicts next month.
A spokesman for Fifa ethics judge Joachim Eckert said Mr Blatter and Mr Platini "will be invited to submit positions including any evidence" and can request hearings.
The Fifa and Uefa presidents, currently suspended for 90 days, face bans of at least several years for alleged financial wrongdoing.
The investigations chamber of the Fifa ethics committee said on Saturday that it submitted final case reports and asked for sanctions against both officials. Details were not given.
The case centres on two million US dollars (£1.3m) of Fifia money which Mr Blatter approved for Mr Platini in 2011 as backdated salary.
Both deny wrongdoing and say they had a verbal contract to pay Mr Platini for work as Mr Blatter's presidential adviser from 1998-2002.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
