Does any French football fan here NOT want him to become president ? I think he would make things fair and even for everyone and that would help out the French teams. A French UEFA president is the only way to go ! No Germans please !
If he means what he says and if he sticks to it i.e. defending the ideal of the sport v sheer business, he's my man. Otherwise, any good professional will do.
Did you read about his plans about extending the Champions League to 256 teams? Ils sont foux ces Francais.
