Prague alternative Platini as a candidate for FIFA presidency – NU.nl

From Prague confirmed Thursday in BNR that some unions have approached him, but the KNVB director claims to have no interest in the presidency of FIFA.

“It is not there for me. We consider it wrong to come now with a shadow candidate, for that, you indicate that you Platini not trust. We await the way things calm down,” said From Prague at the NIS after the emergency meeting of UEFA in Nyon.

At that meeting spoke all 54 associations of UEFA their support to Platini, who last week Ninety days was suspended by the ethics committee of FIFA.

FIFA president Sepp Blatter would have two million Swiss francs to FIFA funds transferred to Platini for work that the Frenchman has done between 1999 and 2002. It is unclear where that amount was intended for.

The successor to the outgoing Blatter is elected on February 26, 2016. Platini has been up for election and remain, if he is acquitted of corruption, ordinary candidate on behalf of the UEFA

Improbable

From Prague imagined end of January already a candidate for the FIFA presidency. He retired on May 21 his candidacy in order to present a united front with Prince Ali, who finally succumbed to Blatter.

The KNVB said last Friday in Kazakhstan still know that Van Praag probably not another time candidate would propose to follow the equally dividing and currently suspended Blatter.

“It’s short notice, ” told KNVB director Bert van Oostveen in Astana. ” On 26 October the nomination deadline. I do not want to speculate too much, but it would indeed be that Van Praag comes up again. “

” Then many nations and unions have to rely on him. But we go there with the KNVB not re-budget for free. In my eyes it is also a good option for someone who is now not active in football FIFA’s reform ”
