It seems that Blatter, the President of FIFA for the last 16 years (4 terms of 4 years), is now already certain of his re-election next year for a fifth term ! It is something which only he with his contacts, and as a worldwide FIFA tourist, could ensure !
Other servants of World Football, like Michel Platini, the President of UEFA, can only "wait" ! As long as the Statutes of FIFA are not revised to limit the number of terms a President can serve, nothing will change.
If Michel Platini hopes, or expects, that his chance will come in 2019, this supposes that Blatter will resign his "sinecure" ! He may be guilty of neglecting his duties in not changing the Statutes and even profiting from this neglect, but has anyone consulted legal experts to determine what could be done ? Blatter will do nothing !
What would happen if UEFA withdrew from the next two World Cup Finals, in Russia in 2018 and in Qatar in 2022 ?
