S.Blatter: I do not support any candidate.

Sepp Blatter said he does not support or endorse any of the five candidates vying to become FIFA president.

However, rumors are circulating that Blatter still communicates with some of the candidates. A well-known figure in world football, former FIFA president Sepp Blatter, who was removed due to corruption scandals, will not be able to participate in the elections on February 26.

He will not be able to hold any positions in football organizations for another eight years. "Four candidates have approached me, I cannot support any one of them, it is impossible," said S. Blatter.

He also said that several federations have approached him and asked who they should vote for. However, he responded that the federations should vote as they see fit. Currently, the two leading candidates are Bahrain's Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa and UEFA General Secretary Gianni Infantino from Switzerland.
