Aiming to end Sepp Blatters 17-year grip on power at FIFA, Prince Ali Bin Al
Hussein has a daunting task.The 39-year-old prince from Jordan announced Tuesday
he will be a candidate for the FIFA presidency even though five of the six
continental confederations have already declared their support for Blatter.The
rebellious region — European governing body UEFA — holds only 53 of the 209
votes and includes traditionally loyal Blatter supporters among former Soviet
republics.Prince Ali also cannot be sure of widespread support within his home
Asian Football Confederation, where he faces an awkward election in May before
FIFAs decision day.Still, the prince represents a genuine choice for FIFA voters
who truly want to freshen the culture of an organization rocked by scandals on
Blatters watch.Elected by Asian members as their FIFA vice-president in January
2011, Prince Ali is untouched by the allegations of bribery and favour-seeking
that tainted many of his colleagues on the much-discredited, Blatter-chaired
executive committee, which he formally joined later that year.This was not an
easy decision, the prince said in a single-page statement in which he pledged to
run a positive campaign and did not specifically mention Blatter. It came after
careful consideration and many discussions with respected FIFA colleagues over
the last few months.The message I heard, over and over, was that it is time for
a change.Prince Ali has been encouraged to run by UEFA President Michel Platini,
who opted last year to avoid an expected challenge to his onetime mentor
Blatter.I know Prince Ali well. He has all the credibility required to hold high
office, the France great said in a statement. We now await his proposals and his
program for the future of football.FIFA did not immediately respond to a request
for comment from Blatters office.Prince Ali is considered the main challenger to
Blatter. Jerome Champagne of France, a former FIFA staffer and longtime ally of
Blatter, has also announced his intention to run.During Blatters 17-year reign,
he has avoided personal scandal amid bribery allegations in presidential and
World Cup hosting elections, kickbacks paid to senior officials, and World Cup
ticket scams.Blatter has also mastered the politics of an often secretive
organization he joined in 1975, a few months before Prince Ali was born. The
veteran Swiss official has said his mission to lead world football is
unfinished.That mission is fuelled by a runway popular and commercial success of
FIFAs cash cow, the World Cup.The worlds most-watched sports event has given
FIFA $1.5 billion in cash reserves with plenty more to giive members and
confederations every four years ahead of election day. Devonta Freeman Falcons Jersey. Rest assured, the 11 members in this room are the first in line, Oceania confederation
president David Chung said last June, pledging his voters support to Blatter in
Sao Paulo, Brazil.Its against this culture — and Blatters long relationship with
voters, such as the 54 in Africa who have little contact with Jordan — that
Prince Ali must compete.Prince Ali did not specify which five FIFA members will
nominate him, as required before a Jan. 29 deadline. He travelled Tuesday to
Australia for the Asian Cup, which kicks off Friday after an AFC congress in
Melbourne.AFC president Sheik Salman Bin Ibrahim Al Khalifa of Bahrain pledged
its backing for Blatter at a 60th anniversary celebration at Manila in November,
confirming earlier support in Brazil.It was a unanimous decision, Salman said at
the time. We never go back on our words and commitments, thats how we are.Last
June in Brazil, Sheik Salman also effectively manoeuvred Prince Ali out of his
FIFA vice presidency by tying that role to the AFC presidency at future
elections. Those are next due in May, when Prince Ali should contest an ordinary
FIFA board seat as one of Asias four elected delegates.While others in Asia have
shaped internal politics, Prince Ali has taken a more personal path in
development projects for youth and womens football. Previously, he led a
successful campaign to lift a FIFA ban on female Islamic players wearing
headscarves in its competitions.The theme of public service follows a Jordanian
royal family tradition for the son of the late King Hussein and the late Queen
Alia, who died in a helicopter crash in 1977.Educated at schools in England and
the United States, Prince Ali attended the elite Sandhurst military academy in
England before joining his countrys armed forces.His sister, Princess Haya,
stepped down last month as an International Olympic Committee member after eight
years as president of equestrians governing body, and their half-brother Prince
Faisal remains an IOC member.Prince Ali was a vocal supporter of FIFA ethics
prosecutor Michael Garcia, who resigned last month with a parting shot at
Blatters leadership style and the organizations seeming unwillingness to
reform.On Tuesday, Prince Ali called for shifting focus away from administrative
controversy and back to sport.The worlds game deserves a world-class governing
body — an international federation that is a service organization and a model of
ethics, transparency and good governance, Prince Ali said.However noble the aim,
it is unclear that FIFA voters feel the same way. Wholesale Jerseys China ' ' '
