Timeline
Grindel resigned as President of the German Football Association on 2 April 2019. The reason he gave for his resignation was his criticism of himself after accepting a luxury watch from a Ukrainian oligarch. Grindel had already been the target of criticism in the run-up to the meeting. One accusation was, among other things, the lack of mention of additional income when he took up his post as chairman of the supervisory board of the association's so-called "media management company". He was also criticized for his communication in public and for his media relations. As a result of his approach Grindel has been the target of criticism since the summer of 2018.
In July 2018, Mesut Özil criticised Grindel's approach to Özil's Turkish ancestry in a statement declaring his retirement from the national team, following controversial photos with Recep Tayyip Erdogan. However, Grindel's handling of the fallout was criticised by Matt Pearson of Deutsche Welle, who opined that comments Grindel made in 2004 calling multiculturalism "a myth and a lifelong lie" were incompatible with his role at the DFB, stating "it doesn't seem appropriate for him to continue in a position where he's overseeing players and coaches from a variety of backgrounds".
