Blatter's daughter: Sepp ‘will survive, no matter what’

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

The daughter of Sepp Blatter is confident her father will remain head of Fifa following the presidential election on 29th May 2015. Speaking to ѿý Sport’s Richard Conway, Corrine Blatter said the 79-year-old was “hurt” by current criticism. “There are always two sides of the story. Unfortunately nowadays it’s always the negative that is going to be reported and it hurts him,” she added. “He will always survive, no matter what’s going to happen on the 29th of May, he will survive.” “They will only realise what he has done when he’s gone.” “[People will say] he was a great man, he was a visionary. Thanks to him, the world is a little bit better.” This clip is originally from 5 live Sport on Wednesday 27 May 2015.
