On July 29, 2015, after much hesitation, Michel Platini, then head of UEFA, ran for the presidency of FIFA. The election is scheduled for February 2016 and nothing seems to be able to hinder the world destiny of the former captain of the Blues, who is widely favored in the ballot. But he will however have to give up following the outbreak of the “case” of the suspicious payment of 2 million Swiss francs (1.8 million euros), two months after his candidacy. Now acquitted, can the former boss of the European body resume his march forward? He dreams about it secretly, even if he doesn’t admit it. But after seven years of absence, he has lost ground, influence and the seats are now firmly occupied.
