Internationals Kevin-Prince Boateng of Ghana and Jozy Altidore of the United States, who have been racially abused while playing, were named as part of FIFA's new anti-racism task force on Tuesday.

The group, launched by FIFA president Sepp Blatter last month, is being chaired by Jeffrey Webb, the president of CONCACAF, the confederation responsible for soccer in North and Central America and the Caribbean.

English Premier League referee Howard Webb, Theo Van Seggelen, the head of the global players union FIFPro, Marcel Mathier, chairman of FIFA's disciplinary committee and Claudio Sulser, former chairman of FIFA's ethics committee, are also on the 12-man panel.
