Michel Platini and Musa Bility have been blocked from taking part in FIFA’s presidential elections. Plantini, the UEFA president, was excluded because he’s on a 90-day suspension from world football. Bility, the Liberian FA president, was left out because he didn’t pass the integrity check. The five candidates are Prince Ali Al Hussein, Sheikh Salman Bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa, Jerome Champagne, Gianni Infantino and Tokyo Sexwale. The decision can be appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
