Issa Hayatou
Embattled FIFA boss (abi na ex boss) Sepp Blatter, will not be present at the finals of the women's World Cup to hold in Vancouver, Canada, even though he had previously assured reporters that he
would.
His lawyer told organizers that he would not be present for personal reasons.
Blatter has not been indicted for corruption, by United States prosecutors, unlike 9 former and current FIFA officials, but is probably wary of traveling into North American territory.
FIFA Secretary General, Jerome Valkce will not travel for the finals as well.
Hayatou is a senior Vice President of FIFA, and president of the Confederation of African Football, CAF. He will preside the trophy ceremony at the finals of the women's World Cup.
Hayatou, the president of the Confederation of African Football, was accused of selling his vote for the 2022 men’s World Cup hosting rights by a former Qatar bid employee, Phaedra Almajid. He has denied the allegations, and U.S. prosecutors have not accused him of any wrongdoing.
