The FIFA President Controversy

Over the past year FIFA President, Sepp Blatter has gotten himself in quite a mess. There has been many speculations regarding Blatter and the bribery scandal about the 2022 World Cup being held in Qatar. People feel that Sepp accepted a bribe to let Qatar host the 2022 world cup. Qatar hosting the world cup has had many changes being made to the tournament which is leaving many people unhappy. Since Qatar's climate is so hot one change they are making is that they are going to make the tournament in November and December rather than usually having it in June and August. Another controversial thing about the topic is that Qatar is in the Middle East and people are concerned about bomb threats on The biggest sports tournament in the world watched worldwide by over 2,000,000,000 ( 2 billion ) people. There has been lots of people who would say that they are going to run for the presidency but they all eventually fall through. Sepp Blatter's tenure as FIFA president suffered a new blow after the Swiss Attorney General opened criminal proceedings against him on "suspicion of criminal mismanagement." A statement released by the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) of Switzerland confirmed it was examining a contract signed by Blatter with the Caribbean Football Union and an alleged "disloyal payment" of $2 million to UEFA president Michel Platini.In a statement sent to CNN, Blatters lawyer Richard Cullen said: "We're confident that when the Swiss authorities have a chance to review the documents and the evidence they will see that the contract was properly prepared and negotiated by the appropriate staff members of FIFA." The big question asked here is that if there is this much complication and difficulty regarding Blatter and his job, is it worth keeping him as FIFA president.

In my opinion I think that Blatter should be fired. There has been so much controversy that people are starting to focus more on the President, than the actual game of soccer. There has been to much commotion and speculation going on regarding Sepp Blatter and the decisions that he has made that I think that they should get rid of him for good. If FIFA fire Sepp Blatter then we would stop focusing on bribery and speculation about the President position and finally focus on the 'beautiful game'
