FIFA President, Sepp Blatter, is talking tough on racism in football.
Speaking at the Confederation of African Football (CAF) Congress in Cairo, Egypt, Blatter said: “We have to use our rules to suspend teams, to take away their points or even to relegate them if racism continues. You see, Sepp Blatter deplores racism, especially when he’s talking to Africans. Blatter loves, loves, loves telling Africans how awful racism is – It’s so terrible, guys! He also wants you to forget that he tried to solve racism with handshakes in 2011, because that’s not something someone who takes racism seriously does or says when in front of a microphone or actual other human beings.
“But now, he wants you to know that there will be consequences if racism continues. He’s serious. He wants you to know that he means business and he’s also probably wagging his finger while talking”.
All Africa’s 54 nations will be voting for Blatter in next month’s FIFA presidential elections.
