The source of wealth is from individuals with little or no history of interest in the game, who have happened upon football as a means of serving some hidden agenda.
From Sepp Blatter
What I am most proud of is the legacy of hope that FIFA and football leaves around the world. It makes all of the efforts and energy I pour into this job worth it.
What we have to do is to find a solution that the interests of the national teams are respecting the interests of the clubs. And also the clubs they shall respect the interests and the aspirations of national teams.
As long as you've got serious investors who wish to put money into football, I applaud. It proves that football is attractive. What upsets me, what I find scandalous, is when clubs accept fools.
Because I love football and I love the footballers.
Why is it good for football to take the excitement away from fans by overcharging them for tickets to see their team?
Yes, in general, I think there is too much club football on TV.
The World Cup must remain the number one competition, because it is our only source of money and, with that money, we can develop football in the whole world.
It's up to the national associations and their leagues to limit the entry of foreign players.
