Deep crisis emerg in FIFA...Chung launches FIFA presidency bid, attacks Blatter

  South Korean billionaire Chung Mong-Joon on Monday launched his formal campaign for the
FIFA presidency with an outspoken attack on outgoing leader Sepp Blatter and a vow to fix
the scandal-tainted world football body in four years.
“Today FIFA is undergoing a profound crisis. Under
these circumstances, the FIFA president must be a
crisis manager and a reformer,” the 63-year-old
Chung, a former FIFA vice president, told a press
conference in Paris.
“The problem at FIFA is that those mired in
corruption, the only thing they are interested in is
hiding the corruption,,” he added.
“The real reason FIFA has become such a corrupt
organization is because the same person (Blatter) has
been running it for 40 years. Absolute power
corrupts absolutely'
 Chung vowed that if successful in an election to be
held in February he would serve just one term.
“I can change FIFA in four years. That is my pledge to
football fans in the world.”
UEFA president Michel Platini and Brazil football
legend Zico have also announced they are candidates.
Prince Ali bin Al Hussein, another former FIFA vice
president from Jordan, is also considering a run.
