Blatter is Done Been FIFA Preseident - Says Platini

The Uefa President has become the latest senior football figure to condemn the Fifa president Sepp Blatter and insists there is no chance he will support his re-election

Uefa chief Michel Platini says that Fifa president Sepp Blatter is "Done" and has refused to support his bid to retain his position as head of world football's governing body.
Platini's comments arrive in a week that has seen a number of European football leaders publicly criticise Blatter following more allegations of corruption in Fifa.

"I am supporting him no longer, I think he's done enough in that post," Platini told L'Equipe.

"I've known him for a long time and I like him, but I'm not favourable to him having another term.

"I supported him in 1998 but I do not support him in 2014. In future, I will not support Blatter. I have told him that. I think Fifa needs a breath of fresh air."

Platini also confirmed he is considering contesting for the role of Fifa president but insisted he would not be doing so just to oust Blatter.

"It is not because of Blatter that Michel Platini would stand," he added.

"It is not because of Sepp Blatter that Michel Platini would not appear. My only concern is what I want to do. I am almost 60 years old and I need to know what I want."
