FIFA Infected with Bribery...Requires New President


President of FIFA Sepp Blatter faces an investigation by world football's governing body after being included in a probe into bribery.

The 75-year-old's only opponent at the June 1 presidential election, Mohamed Bin Hammam, had called for Blatter to appear in front of the ethics committee following his own summoning to Sunday's hearing.
Bin Hammam is due to be quizzed along with Jack Warner, who runs the CONCACAF federation covering Central and North America.
The pair have been accused of bribery by FIFA executive committee member Chuck Blazer in relation to a meeting they held with the Caribbean Football Union (CFU) on May 10 and 11 this year.
