. “A million what you want”
The triple Ballon d’Or admitted in a long interview with Le Monde that the famous 1.8 million had not been paid to him by Blatter under a written contract, but rather an agreement “man to man”.
The $ 1.8 million paid in 2011 is the balance of its investment advisory fee for work done to Fifa 1999-2002 reaffirms Platini. The absence of a written contract she could now lead the European Federations to withdraw their support for the French, as was already done Friday Football Association?
UEFA president ensures in any case have acted negligently to justify the absence of a written document: “I should have to ask for an acknowledgment of debt and thus, none of this would have happened”
When he “sent a bill” to Fifa demanding. this amount, Platini said even to have “deceived”: “I did not remember that I had been paid 300,000 Swiss francs (a year), I thought it was 500,000 and that he (Blatter) I had a catch of 500,000 four years. So I sent a bill for two million (CHF or EUR 1.8 million). “
The genesis of the collaboration with Blatter in 1998 is just as incredible, as told by Platini: “How much you want + + application Blatter I answer?. A million + + + + What, + From what you want, rubles, books, dollars +.?. At that time, it n? Is not the? Euro. He replies: + D agreement, one million Swiss francs per year + “
The shadow of Blatter
Despite his 90-day suspension imposed on October 7 by the ethics board?.. FIFA, Platini has always “want” to be presidential candidate Fifa scheduled February 26.
“What m? annoys the most, c? is to? be put in the same bag as the others, he launches the World. I find it shameful? S being dragged through the mud. “The famous
payment Platini and Blatter is to be suspended in the same way by the Ethics Commission. The Swiss Justice made it a distinction between FIFA president resigned, understood as defendant and former star player of Juventus, as a witness attended.
Blatter can it be the source of the revelations about the case? “Let’s say I? ve of doubts “, slips Platini does not exclude that Switzerland wants the” kill political “:” All that came out from the time when I have requested his resignation and where I have been a candidate “on Fifa . Pitfalls
The former captain of the Blues appealed his suspension on October 9 with the Board of Appeal of FIFA. If rejected, its “lawyers seize the Court of Arbitration for Sport” in Lausanne. UEFA, in a motion of support, demanded last week that his case be decided on the merits by mid-November for it has a chance to lead his campaign if bleached .
But this is not the only obstacle in his path: the electoral commission of FIFA must validate his candidacy or not from next week, since the deadline for deposits is 26 October. Yet the panel in charge of component integrity of candidates is composed of the same individuals who suspended. And they probably will not recant.
The executive committee of FIFA, a sort of government of world football, which meets in emergency Tuesday in Zurich, should not change the date of the election, no request strong carryover having been made.
Backstage, UEFA will take the opportunity to discuss a plan B if Platini can not carry out his candidacy. Namely support a candidate from another confederation or bring out another European.
Suspension Platini is only a precaution. The final verdict is still awaited. If new sanction, it will again appeal to the Board of Appeal, and eventually to the CAS.
. Foot and chaos
Beyond questions about the presidency of FIFA, football knows every day more harmful sequence. The Frankfurt prosecutor now considers the procedure for awarding the 2006 World Cup in Germany in 2000 with a preliminary review which will seek to establish whether there is a suspicion of corruption, as stated since Friday magazine Der Spiegel
