I WILL NEVER QUIT AS FIFA PRESIDENT.SEPP BLATTER

Sepp Blatter says he will not stand down as Fifa president because of the criminal proceedings opened against him by Swiss investigators.

The Swiss, 79, is suspected of signing a contract that was “unfavourable to Fifa” and making a “disloyal payment” to Uefa president Michel Platini.

Blatter, who had already said he will stand down in February 2016, claimed he “had done nothing illegal or improper.”
