Sir Craig Reedie, the former vice-president of the International Olympic Committee, has criticised the IOC’s upcoming presidential election for a lack of transparency.
The IOC’s membership will vote for one of seven candidates to succeed Thomas Bach as president in a secret vote in Greece on Thursday, and in doing so they will anoint one of the most powerful figures in global sport. The winning candidate will win an eight-year term with a potential four-year renewal.
