""Sepp Blatter believes he would still be in charge of world football if he had succeeded with a 'secret plan to award the World Cup to the US'.

The 79-year-old blamed American and Swiss authorities for forcing him to give up power by arresting several senior Fifa officials and threatening to prosecute Fifa as a mafia organisation.

The US had decided to pursue Fifa, he claimed, after it was beaten in the race for the 2022 World Cup by Qatar.

“It took a political dimension,” he said. “I am looking now to see what were the political reasons. The easiest thing would be to say [they are] bad losers.”"
