Platini in front of the CAS

Of the banned from UEFA President Michel Platini sets as expected appeal to the court of arbitration for sport. It is probably the last Chance to still be in “his” Championships in France.

For six years, Michel Platini, is barred from the football, is not allowed in the stadiums, not even during the European championship in the summer in his country of France. Now, the UEFA President before the International court of arbitration for sport (CAS) is fighting for his shattered career in the world of football, and raised an objection – for the 60-year-old Frenchman is the last Chance, but before “its” EURO 2016 in France, to the presidency of the European football Union (UEFA). Critics think that this is the wrong way. “I remain of the view that no prejudice. But in terms of the EURO, it would be Platini, if he is trying to decide whether he is doing the UEFA a service, if he renounces his office of”, called on DFB-interim President Reinhard Rauball (69) in the magazine “sport Bild” for the retreat.

UEFA in the power vacuum

Platini was last December, together with the former President of the world football Federation (FIFA), Joseph S. Blatter,
been suspended. Both the dubious payment in the amount of 1.8 million Euro from the year 2011 by FIFA to Platini fatal. The original Eight-year ban was the FIFA appeal Committee by the end of February
to two years be reduced because “the work and the services of Michel Platini and Joseph S. Blatter had not been taken into account over the years, for the FIFA, the UEFA and football in General,” the initial judgment is appropriate.

The two Ex-heads of UEFA: Infantino (l) and Platini

For the UEFA Platini is a lock to be a Problem. Due to the rise of the previous General Secretary
Gianni Infantino, the President of FIFA in the last week, the UEFA is just before the EUROS on the two most important positions in disarray. “In the summer, the EURO will take place, a lot needs to be prepared and decided,” said Rauball: “I think it is a matter of urgency, with a view to the Congress in may about an Alternative will be discussed. You have to distinguish between the personal interests of his strikes and the ability to act in the UEFA, which is a billion-dollar company.”

Vice-President Angel Maria Villar Llona leads formally the UEFA shops. The next UEFA Congress will take place on 3. May in Budapest. With a view to the necessary deadlines, but it is highly questionable whether, in Hungary, a new President could be selected. The UEFA does not want to be awarded your presidential post for the time being, until Platini has exhausted all legal means. The court of arbitration for sport CAS Platini appealed against his ban. He had spoken out vehemently against the judgment and of the “unbearable arrogance”, “arbitrary” and “cynicism”. In Platini’s case before the CAS, both parts will issue a written opinion. The court shall appoint three Arbitrators. First in the connection is negotiated – the time is running against Platini.
