Former Switzerland international Ramon Vega plans to stand in the FIFA presidential election in March and challenge Gianni Infantino. Transfermarkt reports the plan from an interview with the former Tottenham Hotspur defender, who retired from playing in 2003.
Speaking to The Sun, Vega said the Premier League should handle the Manchester City verdict better. City were found guilty of 114 rule breaches and have appealed the decision.
Vega has not taken the usual route after his playing career, unlike many former players who move into coaching or television punditry.
