Blatter: FIFA president tries to artificially create a case against me
Former FIFA president Sepp Blatter has accused current incumbent Gianni Infantino of trying to destroy his reputation.
“I want to clear my honour. When I arrived, we were nothing. And when I left, we were an international organisation, solid economically, socially, culturally, even politically," Blatter explained to RTS.
"I don’t know why, but Infantino doesn’t want me. He even tries to artificially create a case against me.
“He wants to tear me down, but also everything I’ve done because he thinks he’s doing better.
“I must say that I am very touched. I have been accused of criminal instincts, I have been accused of being a thief. It is absurd. I do not know why I find myself in court and I am sure that thousands, not to say millions of footballers don’t understand it either.”
