I won’t stand down as FIFA president – Blatter

Sepp Blatter says he will not stand down as Fifa president because of the criminal proceedings opened against him by Swiss investigators.
The Swiss, 79, is suspected of signing a contract that was “unfavourable to Fifa” and making a “disloyal payment” to Uefa president Michel Platini.
Blatter, who had already said he will stand down in February 2016, claimed he “had done nothing illegal or improper.”
