Seppu00a0Blatter has promised a reform of FIFA if he is elected president and revealed that he too once handed back a bribe when he was given an envelope which turned out to be stuffed with cash. The 75-year-old said he will present proposals to FIFA's Congress next week on dealing with past allegations of corruption and ticket touting by senior FIFA officials. Blatter is keeping the details under wraps but they include the chairmen of three key committees being appointed by the Congress of all 208 member countries. Blatter said: "I received once an envelope, when I was secretary general and in this envelope there was an amount of money. "I couldn't refuse because he put it in my pocket. I came home here to FIFA and gave it to the finance director and he put this money on the account of the Swiss Bank Corporation at that time, and informed the guy 'the money you gave to the secretary general is in that bank' and a few days later he reclaimed it. "Then it was specifically known that please don't try to give money to somebody who's in the FIFA."
