Sepp Blatter has warned the football world “you will hear from us again” after the disgraced former Fifa president and his old Uefa counterpart Michel Platini were acquitted of fraud charges by a Swiss court.
A judge said the pair’s account of a ‘gentlemen’s agreement’ for Fifa to pay Platini 2 million Swiss francs (£1.7m) for consulting work in 2011 was credible, and serious doubts existed about the prosecution’s allegation it was a fraudulent payment.
